This minor provides an opportunity to study the development of European civilization from the late Roman Empire to the 17th century. Students take courses in three categories of inquiry:

Major institutions, events, and peoples
Ideas, thinking, and beliefs
Forms of artistic expression

Course requirements:

Medieval and Renaissance core course (one course): Students must have already completed at least three courses for the minor before taking the core course. In consultation with the coordinator of the minor, students will elect a core course.
Five courses chosen from among categories, including at least one in each of the following three categories:
- Major institutions, events, and people - includes courses from the history department covering the late antique period to 1700.
- Ideas, thinking, and beliefs - includes courses from the religious studies and philosophy departments.
- Forms of artistic expression - includes courses from the art history program and the departments of English, language and culture studies, and music.
All courses must be approved by the minor coordinator, who maintains a list of acceptable courses.

Trinity's study-away program in Rome also offers courses in the medieval and Renaissance periods.
