PhD in Literary Studies: Minor
The minor requirement for Literary Studies students has three options:
- an internal minor of 10-12 credits in a Department of English program other than the Literary Studies program. The minor may be in English Linguistics, Composition and Rhetoric, or Creative Writing, with the conditions of the minor administered by the relevant faculty within that program of the English Department.
- an external minor in a single department or program other than English, with the conditions of the minor administered by that department or program.
- an external minor in more than one department or program other than English, with the conditions of the minor administered by the English Department Graduate Division. For such a distributed minor, the Department requires a statement from the student, subject to the approval of the Director of Graduate Studies, offering a rationale for the selection of courses and demonstrating their coherence as a group.
