English Minor

The English minor is designed to allow students to explore literature written in English (including translations from other languages). Students may complement literature courses with creative writing and/or English language courses. Only one course unit, either required or elective, may be used to satisfy requirements for both a major and a minor field. For more information, please contact the Associate Chair.

Requirements

Required (1 course unit)

  • One of the critical content courses is LIT 101/Cultures and Canons or LIT 102/Approaches to Literature. Contact the Associate Chair for assistance registering for one of these courses.

Options in English (4 course units)

  • Choose four 200-level and above courses from the department’s literature (LIT), language/linguistics (LNG), and creative writing (CWR) courses. By TCNJ policy, two of these courses must be 300-level or above.
