In the English program, you will read a wide variety of texts, study the English language, and investigate and practice the process of writing. We offer courses in literary periods that range from classic to contemporary, and that focus on writers from Shakespeare to Margaret Atwood. The three-year program allows flexibility of choice for students who want to sample a wide variety of courses; to develop a stronger understanding of language, literature, and culture; and to strengthen their reading and writing skills and their powers of critical thinking. This degree provides knowledge and practical skills that are assets in everyday life and in almost any career. Critical readers and writers are required in professions such as law, public service, business, medicine, and politics. More directly, the study of English can lead to careers in teaching or careers that involve writing, such as news reporting, publishing, business advertising, and public relations.
