Minor requirements

The minor in REES requires 28 graded credits; courses must be passed with a grade of C- or better.
  1. Language. Three years of college study or equivalent competency in languages of the region. The language requirement is ordinarily fulfilled through three years of one Slavic language (ordinarily Russian), but students may petition to substitute one year of another Slavic language for one year of the first Slavic language.
  2. Field of concentration. Three 4-credit courses in one concentration, of which two must be upper-division and one must be a 400-level course.
  3. Research. A research paper written in conjunction with one of the upper-division courses or as a separate reading and conference course in the field of concentration. This should represent your best work in college, and it should be submitted when you apply to graduate.
  4. Electives. Sixteen credits of course work, of which 12 credits (typically three 4-credit courses) must be upper-division. Up to four credits of elective work may be taken in the concentration, but may not be used to satisfy both the concentration requirement and the elective requirement.
