Medieval and Early Modern Studies

The minor focuses on medieval and early modern European culture and its influences on the modern world. Students acquire historical perspectives that contribute to current discussions about ethnicity and nationality, colonialism, technologies and their effects, gender and sexuality, and the characteristics of historical and fictional narratives.

The minor requires 18 credit hours, of which at least three credits must be at the 4000 level and at least six credits must be at the 3000 level. An additional requirement is completion of a 2000-level foreign language course (three hours). A list of courses and additional information is available from Dr. Will Hasty, Department of Germanic and Slavic Studies, Dauer Hall, Room 254.
