English Department

English majors study poetry, novels, films, plays, short stories, sit-coms, songs, commercials—in short, all the oral, written, and visual texts through which humans express meaning. English majors develop their creativity, their oral and written communication skills, and their powers of persuasion and critical thinking, preparing themselves for careers in fields such as business, law, education, professional and technical writing, journalism, advertising, and publishing.
