The Minor in Children’s Literature and Childhood Studies (CLCS) provides students with an opportunity to study children’s literature within the context of the interdisciplinary field of childhood studies.

In addition to taking courses in children’s literature, students participating in this minor select courses pertaining to such childrelated topics as language acquisition, child psychology, education, juvenile law, pediatric nursing, and the history and culture of childhood.
