Department of Foreign Languages

Minors in World Languages and Cultures



Total Hours: 20


A minor in French, German or Spanish consists of a minimum of 20 semester hours beyond 1102 (second semester). At least 12 of the 20 semester hours must be on the 3000 or 4000 level. E.g.:

  •  WLF, WLG, or WLS 2201G. Credits: 4
  •  WLF, WLG, or WLS 2202G. Credits: 4
  •  Four advanced courses. Credits: 12

However, with the approval of the department chairperson, students with three or four years of high school study in the language, or the equivalent, may be placed in one of the following alternate plans:

  1. 2202 plus 12 hours in courses numbered 3000 or above. Upon completion of these hours the student will be exempted from four hours of lower-division course work ordinarily required for the minor.
  2. 12 hours in courses numbered 3000 or above. Upon completion of these hours the student will be exempted from eight hours of lower-division course work ordinarily required for the minor.

Note: With the exception of WLF/WLG/WLS 4275A and 4275B, courses taken on Credit/No Credit basis do not count toward this minor
