The comparative literature minor allows students to examine literature from a multitude of different perspectives. Courses in the minor foster the program's core values of linguistic competence, theoretical fluency and broad literary culture. Our faculty consists of nationally and internationally known scholars in fields ranging from Latin lyric poetry to film studies to poststructuralist and postcolonial theory. Students completing the minor are prepared for graduate study or to transfer their well-honed writing skills to work in fields including journalism, publishing, education or scholarly research.
