English explores literary works while developing creative and analytical thinking skills. Through examining and crafting texts, we gain insights into human nature. We discover how to uncover deeper meanings, appreciate language's expressive and artistic potential, and—most crucially—bridge cultural divides to find common ground in our diverse society.
Graduates with English degrees become skilled interpreters, educators, and communicators across various professions. While many pursue careers in teaching or legal fields, employers in all sectors value English majors for their clear communication abilities, problem-solving skills, and capacity to drive innovation.
Aspiring high school English teachers can obtain certification through either a Bachelor of Arts in English from the College of Liberal Arts or a Bachelor of Science in English from the School of Education.
