The Department of English offers programs of study leading to the degree of Bachelor of Arts in English, Master of Arts in English, Master of Fine Arts in English, and Doctor of Philosophy in English. There are different specializations within each of these degree programs.

We also offer Core Curriculum courses designed for students from across the campus, and literature and writing courses for non-majors.
