The Undergraduate Program in English is full of possibilities. Every semester we offer a broad variety of courses spanning many critical perspectives, geographical zones, and historical periods. English is a dynamic, evolving field, always committed to the reexamination of older traditions and the exploration of newer ones. Of course, no matter what the topic may be, every English class is rooted in the challenges and pleasures of reading, writing, and thinking.

For English majors, we offer a program designed to cultivate both historical understanding and critical skills, grounded in current scholarship. In addition to the basic set of requirements, English majors can choose from an inventive array of course electives and specialized options.

For English minors and non-majors, our program provides all kinds of opportunities to explore the worlds of literature and culture. From Geoffrey Chaucer to Charlie Chaplin, Restoration drama to postcolonial fiction, from Old English epics to new media theory, there are courses to pique your intellectual curiosity and satisfy your desire to learn.
