Bachelor of Arts in Scrittura e Revisione

OKWU’s Bachelor of Arts in Writing and Editing is designed to produce creative, detail-oriented, and critical thinkers who are capable of communicating truthfully, clearly, and winsomely through the written word. The program consists of 36 credit hours – a 27-hour core curriculum and nine elective credits that involve writing in various disciplines, such as ministry, marketing, and journalism. Students complete an internship or portfolio toward the end of the program to gain practical skills and connections in their chosen field.

OKWU’s Writing and Editing curriculum is not only focused on giving students a technical mastery of their craft, but of integrating faith into the discipline of writing. Graduates of the program are prepared to approach their careers with the attitude of Christ, effectively taking their faith into the culture through communication.

In addition to high-level academic instruction, the major features numerous extra-curricular activities for students to get involved in. Most Friday nights during the school year, English students gather together to share their creative writing. During the week, many English majors work diligently to edit The Eagle, OKWU’s student-run digital magazine.

The mission of Oklahoma Wesleyan University is to live out what it means to be a Christ-centered university, modeling a way of thought, a way of life, and a way of faith. It is a place of serious study, honest questions, and critical engagement, all in the context of a liberal arts community that honors the Primacy of Jesus Christ, the Priority of Scripture, the Pursuit of Truth, and the Practice of Wisdom.

The Primacy of Jesus Christ as the incarnate Son of God, the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End, who is the lens for all learning and the Lord of our daily lives.

The Priority of Scripture as the inerrant and authoritative written Word of God that guides us in all matters of faith, learning, and living.

The Pursuit of Truth as an objective, attainable reality grounded in the person and example of Jesus Christ and anchored in the Bible.

The Practice of Wisdom as the goal for all members of the university community, who work to promote healing and wholeness in a broken culture and hurting world.
