Creative Writing Minor

(SIMS Code: 112139)

The minor in creative writing allows students in a wide variety of fields to benefit from programming and curriculum offered by SDSU’s MFA creative writing faculty. Courses in fiction, poetry, screenwriting, creative publishing and editing allow students to sharpen their skills and pursue interests in creative writing in a supportive environment.

The creative writing minor is not available to students majoring in English or comparative literature. Courses in the minor may not be counted toward the major, but may be used to satisfy preparation for the major and general education requirements, if applicable. A minimum of six upper division units must be completed in residence at San Diego State University.
