To complete a minor in Linguistics students are required to pass (with a grade of "C" or better): Introduction to Linguistics (LIN 3010), a course in the structure of a language (LIN 4680, FRE 4850, SPN 4850 or ITA 4730), one of the following upper-division core courses in linguistics (LIN 4326, LIN 4802 or LIN 4430) and two upper-division (3/4000-level) linguistics courses (6 credits), to be chosen in consultation with the LLCL advisor.

At least 75 percent of all minor credits earned must be from FAU. Courses taken on study abroad programs may be counted toward the minor, but all such courses should be approved by the LLCL advisor before the student begins the study abroad program.
