Minor Requirements
Students who elect the minor program must meet with the appropriate RLLT undergraduate adviser before the end of Spring Quarter of their third year to declare their intention to complete the minor. Students choose courses in consultation with the undergraduate adviser of their language program. Students must obtain approval for the minor program from the undergraduate adviser and submit it to their College adviser by the deadline above on a form obtained from the undergraduate adviser.
The minor in Romance Languages and Literatures requires a total of six courses beyond the second-year language sequence (20100-20300). One course must be an advanced language course (above 20300). The balance must consist of five literature courses, including at least two in the survey sequence 21703, 21803, 21903, and 22003 (the latter only offered in French and Spanish).
Courses in the minor (1) may not be double counted with the student's major(s) or with other majors and (2) may not be counted toward general education requirements. Courses in the minor must be taken for quality grades, and more than half of the requirements for the minor must be met by registering for courses bearing University of Chicago course numbers.
The following groups of courses would comprise a minor in the areas indicated. Other programs may be designed in consultation with the director of undergraduate studies. Minor program requirements are subject to revision.
