We offer two areas of concentration: the Writing Track and the Literature Track.

All majors learn how to read and interpret complex texts, how to relate one text to another and to a tradition, and how to read texts within historical and multicultural contexts. Majors who choose the writing track practice their craft with four targeted creative courses, including two intermediate workshops in topics such as fiction, new media writing, poetry, and environmental writing. We offer literature courses organized in various ways, focusing on historical periods, single authors, literary types, thematic issues, multicultural literature, and gender issues. Courses taken Pass-Fail may count towards the major or minor in English.

10 credits are required for the completion of this major.
