The writing minor allows students to complement their area of major study with systematic experience in writing.

Students minoring in writing must complete a total of 15 hours (excluding ENGL 1010, 1020, 2030). None of the required 15 hours may be taken pass/fail. Only courses completed with a grade of C (2.0) or better may be counted toward the minor. A minimum of 9 upper-division hours of work in the minor must be taken with CU Denver English faculty.

Students are encouraged to take ENGL 1020 and ENGL 2030 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.
