The creative writing minor gives students the opportunity to complement their area of major study with experience writing and reading poetry or fiction.

Students minoring in creative writing must complete a total of 15 hours. None of the required courses may be taken pass/fail. Only courses completed with a grade of C (2.0) or better may be counted toward the minor. All upper-division courses must be taken with CU Denver English faculty. Students should take ENGL 1020 before beginning the minor. Courses in a minor cannot be counted toward the English major or English Writing major; consult an English advisor for substitutions.
