The discipline of English has expanded beyond the traditional study of literature to include creative writing, film studies, technical writing and cultural studies. The Minor in English lets you explore the craft and meaning behind a range of literary and popular texts, analyze how words can shape our ethical, cultural and critical sensibilities, and practice the art of communicating with elegance and clarity.
