major: English

Prerequisites

ENG4013 Approach to Lit Interpretation (3 Credits)

At least 18 credits, including ENG4013, in English or related field with a GPA of 3.0 or higher

Major Requirements (6 credits)

A minimum of 33 semester hours are required for the degree. A maximum of 12 of those credits (4 courses) may be taken at the 5000-level. All students must apply for graduation during registration for the last semester of courses at UNF. Deadlines are available online.

Major Electives (27 credits)

There are 5 basic requirements among electives:
One course must be "early" according to below definition.
One course must be "late" according to below definition.
One course must be American literature (AML 5XXX or AML 6XXX).
One course must be British literature (ENL 5000 or 6000 -level).
One course must be World/global or international in scope (LIT5000- or LIT 6000- level).

An "early" American literature course has a pre-1865 focus.
A "late" American literature course has a post- 1865 focus.
An "early" British literature course has a pre-1800 focus.
A "late" British literature course has a post-1800 focus.

The graduate coordinator may substitute one film course (or equivalent), such as FIL5934 for one of these requirements. Course descriptions for international offerings will clarify whether the course counts as "early" or "late".

Note: a single course may go toward satisfying more than one requirement. For example, a LIT6246 Major Authors course on Toni Morrison would satisfy 3 criteria: the one Major Authors requirement, one of the two "later" requirements, and one of the two American requirements.
