B.A. in English: The English major provides a broad background in literary periods and genres, as well as intensive study of major authors and literary theories. Students take a combination of courses in British, American, and world literature and may also choose a variety of electives in creative writing, rhetoric, professional writing, and linguistics.

Minor in English: The general English minor is devised for those students who enjoy literary studies and creative writing. No matter what you're majoring in, it can be fun to study literature and write creatively as a welcome change from highly technical subjects or as an excellent complement to majors in other fields of the humanities, fine arts, and social sciences.
