Englisch (B.A.)

The Bachelor of Arts in English degree develops critical thinking, writing, research, and communication skills as students explore and investigate Western and World Literature's great works in its core and all concentrations. Students gain an appreciation of the imaginative power of language and the complexity of human thought through various critical lenses. As students engage with literary works, they demonstrate, through written and oral discourse, their ability to think critically, argue persuasively, and use research to support ideas. In English is an excellent choice for students interested in careers such as editing, publishing, business, the arts, technical and professional writing, research, teaching, law, advertising, marketing, or public relations. The degree also provides an excellent foundation for graduate-level work.
