The English Minor at Regis College allows students in other majors to pursue their love of literature. This minor is well suited if you love thinking critically, analytically, and creatively about stories and poetry.
Beginning with an introduction to literary studies, you will explore a wide range of literature. Courses complement a variety of majors — students in psychology and nursing may find the writing and healing courses beneficial to their studies.
Additionally, you will have the opportunity to study theatre abroad in cities like Dublin to widen your perspectives and global understanding.
