Undergraduate Studies in English

An English degree is versatile; it can lead to any number of careers, as our distinguished alumni will attest. Our faculty specialize in everything from Old English to modern popular culture, from acknowledged classics to texts that push the boundaries of what we think of as literature. Our courses exhibit the same range, and our dedicated staff of teacher-researchers prepare you for the challenges you will meet in the future. Our small classes ensure personal attention and stimulating discussion.
