DESCRIPTION:
Programs in English include a general degree suitable for anyone interested in a career involving reading and writing including preparation for graduate studies in English; Professional Writing and rhetoric courses suitable for students preparing for careers in business, public service, and law; an English education track leading to a secondary teaching certificate in English; and a flexible creative writing degree including poetry, fiction, and nonfiction (travel writing, column writing, memoir writing, etc.). Our Humanities classes offer a wide array of integrated arts courses which explore non-English literature in translation, philosophy, art, architecture, music, and film.
We teach a broad array of courses in writing, including beginning, intermediate, and advanced composition and technical writing.The English department also administers the interdisciplinary digital technology and culture (DTC) degree. More than 10 departments collaborate to offer this interdisciplinary liberal arts degree that offers a unique combination of critical and practical skills aimed at developing students who are prepared to work in technological environments, create technologically enhanced products, and who are critically aware of the role that technology plays in society and culture.
A degree in DTC prepares students for 21st-century careers in Web site design and usability, graphic and print design, photography, professional and technical writing, database development, and a variety of other technology-enhanced careers.
We also participate in interdepartmental programs in linguistics, women's studies, comparative ethnic cultures, and American studies.
