The interdisciplinary minor in medieval and early modern studies requires 18 hours, chosen from at least three different departments. Courses from the student’s major may count in the minor. Students have the opportunity to attend the six-week Summer Medieval Program at Oxford University in England, for which they receive 4.5 hours (two courses) which count toward the minor.

For details about the application to the Oxford program, and possible financial aid, consult interim director Stewart Carter, carter@wfu.edu.

Students who are pursuing a major in English, the minor in Medieval and Early Modern Studies is fairly straight forward. Students can take 12 hours from the listed English Courses that can also count towards their major. They will then need to complete and additional 6 hours from two different departments.
