The Department of English (Home)

The Department of English is home to three undergraduate major concentrations (Literature, Creative Writing and Secondary English Education) and three graduate programs (Literature, Creative Writing and Language and Literacy). Our courses are taught by a diverse faculty, many of whom have authored award-winning novels, memoirs, volumes of poetry, and influential works in fields of literary theory, cultural criticism, rhetoric, pedagogy, biography and historical scholarship. In addition to our course offerings, the English Department maintains an active calendar of readings, guest lectures, craft talks and professional development seminars designed to further enhance the education of our students.
