Return to {$returnto_text} Return to: Programs of Study

The minor in literature allows the student to become acquainted with the greatest writers of all ages. The masterpieces studied here provide aesthetic, cultural, philosophical, and psychological enrichment. Beyond the personal value this minor could have for any student, it is recommended especially to students with professional goals, such as the study of law or medicine; to majors in career areas requiring knowledge of people and culture, such as journalism, management, social work, and health-related programs; and to majors in related areas of the liberal arts, such as history, government and politics, psychology, and philosophy. Students should consult their major advisers about the appropriateness of this minor for their majors. This minor is not open to English majors.
