Slavic Language, Literature, & Culture Minor
for the Undergraduate Minor in Slavic Language, Literature & Culture
A minor in Slavic language, literature, and culture may be useful and enriching for students in many disciplines, from economics and political science through comparative literature and theater to engineering and mathematics. The 18- to 20-hour program listed below provides considerable flexibility within a general structure. In completing the requirements for the minor, students may choose to pursue study of a particular Slavic language and culture, or may combine study of a single language with other courses that treat the region more broadly. For example, a student could specialize in Polish by taking POL 201, POL 202, POL 301 for the language and POL 115, POL 245, and HIST 467 for the literature and culture requirements. Please consult the Undergraduate Advisor to choose coursework.
