Medieval and Early Modern Studies Minor

The 18-credit Interdisciplinary Minor in Medieval and Early Modern Studies allows students to explore the Middle Ages and related early modern subjects through courses offered across several disciplines, including art, English, history, foreign languages, humanities, and philosophy.

Students select 18 credit hours from an approved list of courses. A student may apply no more than 3 credit hours from the same department or discipline as the student’s major, and no course may count toward both major and minor requirements.
