Minor

Overview

The Turkish minor introduces students to the language, peoples, cultures, and histories of the Turkish-speaking world. The minor develops the student's command of reading, writing, speaking, and comprehension in the Turkish language and may complement the student's intended major study. Students minoring in Turkish must satisfy the lower division prerequisite requirements. Students may also take a language proficiency exam to waive the elementary and intermediate language courses. Please meet with the undergraduate major advisor to discuss course options and study abroad plans. 

Declaring the Minor

Students may declare the Turkish minor as soon as they begin their study at UC Berkeley. Please find the minor declaration form in the Middle Eastern Languages and Cultures department or email the undergraduate major advisor. Students must declare the minor no later than the semester before their Expected Graduation Term (EGT). Please see the L&S minor guidelines page for more information.
