Professional, Technical, and Creative Writing Concentration


The English Major, leading to the B.A. degree, provides the foundations for a variety of careers. Our classes will guide you through the breadth of literature and beyond. Language is a powerful tool; we will teach you critical approaches to language and how it has always shaped the world. Instead of asking what you can do with an English major, it is better to ask, “What can’t you do with an English major?” The skills you learn in our English courses help prepare you for countless careers, including, but not limited to: Literary Agent, Author, Critic, Legal Researcher, Librarian, Reporter, Science Writer, Campaign Manager, Public Relations Manager, Social Media Manager, Teacher, Professor, Content Creator, etc.
