  1. Elective Courses.

Four courses.

Any dual-listed course in European Studies and most courses taken abroad may count towards the minor. The language course taken abroad can only be counted once (either as an elective for requirement II or as requirement III). Students are therefore encouraged to take a language course in an European language before going abroad. Questions should be directed to the program coordinator Many courses taught on St. Lawrence’s European study programs are included. Consult the program website or the coordinator for a current list of these courses. To ensure breadth, students may count no more than two courses from a single department or program for the minor. Frequently, special topics courses offered in various departments may count as program electives. Students should consult the coordinator about the appropriateness of courses not listed in the current Catalog.

  1. Language Study.

Students must have at least one semester of European language study other than English. This requirement may be filled in several ways, including but not limited to:

  1. Completion of a one-semester language course at the appropriate level offered at St.  Lawrence or another college or university.

Completion of a language course on a continental study abroad program.
