The English Department offers a wide-range program of poetry, prose,
drama, film, linguistics, writing, and journalism for majors and
non-majors alike. This program is designed to help students develop
increased skills in reading, writing, and analytical thinking; greater
appreciation of literature; and deeper understanding of the relationship
between literature and race, gender, culture, history, and our shared
humanity.
The General Education Requirement
All students must satisfy a general education requirement
consisting of eleven (11) courses outside of the major department. The General Education Goal 4 (Literature or Philosophy) is
satisfied through the completion of the English major.
Course Prerequisites
Courses may have specified conditions for enrollment, such as prior
completion of less advanced courses, permission of the instructor, or
appropriate placement test scores. Students should refer to course
descriptions in the department listings for prerequisite requirements.
Placement Testing
Each incoming student must take a placement examination in writing,
which is administered during orientation for new students. Shown below
are additional dates and times for the examinations during the 2006-2007
academic year. Contact the Center for Academic Support and Advising
(CASA) for reservations.
