The interdisciplinary field of Shakespeare Studies emphasizes the intercommunication of the playwright and his works with other cultural productions of Elizabethan and Jacobean England, particularly in the spheres of art and architecture, music, dance, theatrical performance, political and social history, medicine, science, religion, economics, and geography. Shakespeare Studies addresses the continuing production of Shakespeare's plays and their cultural impact during the past 400 years. The minor in Shakespeare Studies at SOU is supported by the special resources of the Oregon Shakespeare Festival, the Margery Bailey Renaissance Collection, and the Center for Shakespeare Studies.

Students who use Eng 201 to fulfill the minor's core requirement may use Eng 202 as an elective, and vice versa. The same principle applies to Eng/TA 436, 437, and 438. To count toward the minor, Eng 448/548 and Eng 458/558 must focus on a major figure (e.g., Chaucer, Donne, or Milton) or topic (e.g., Jacobean tragedy) pertinent to the Renaissance.
