Renaissance Studies Citation

Your chance to become a renaissance man . . . or woman

The Center, with the support of several departments in the College of Arts & Humanities, offers undergraduate students the opportunity to earn a Renaissance Studies citation through the successful completion of five courses drawn from a large group of courses focused on the Renaissance. The Center has begun to consider how best to facilitate the process of completing required courses for students pursuing the citation. Because a number of departments have recently added to or modified the courses they offer in subjects related to Renaissance studies, the Center is updating and expanding the list of courses from which students can select in order to complete the citation. These revisions require the approval of the College's Program, Curriculum and Courses Committee as well as the University Senate. In the meantime, the Center will continue its efforts to promote the citation by enlisting the help of undergraduate advisors and arts and humanities faculty.

The revisions now underway, executed with the assistance of Professor Jackson Barry (English), advisor to the Renaissance Studies citation, will guarantee the continuing vitality of the Renaissance Studies citation program in the future.

Requirements

To earn the Citation in Renaissance Studies, a student must complete a total of 15 credits at the 300-level or higher. Courses must be selected in consultation with the citation advisor.

ADVISING AND THE SIGNATURE OF
THE CITATION ADVISOR ARE MANDATORY.
