In this way, your whole education will be much more than the sum of its parts.
English studies reach out into almost every field.
You can find exciting connections between literature and psychology, poetry and biology, fiction and history, writing and business. Wittenberg already offers several interdisciplinary minors that fit beautifully with the English major. Many courses in the English major focus on women. You may discover that by combining English courses on women writers with general education or elective courses such as Gender and Society, Women in History, you are already well on your way to the five courses that make up the Women's Studies Minor. The social awareness so central to a Woman's Studies program can provide a valuable context for the reading of literature.
