|
Return to: Majors and Minors
The Comparative Literature and Languages major is designed to enable the student to acquire a broad background not only in the literary history of different cultures and countries, but also in their relation to one another, and their relative degrees of influence on crosscultural movements, themes and genres in literature and the arts. A major in Comparative Literature and Languages reflects the intellectual breadth, flexibility and openness to cultural difference that the world increasingly demands. A degree in Comparative Literature and Languages prepares students for graduate study in the same field (or in any of the related areas of specialization), as well as provides a solid general basis for study in professional schools, such as law, education, public administration, or business.
Totals for both the major and the minor can include credits that fulfill other college and university requirements.
