English is a broad major that allows students to focus on a number of areas of study such as literature, linguistics, and both creative writing and practical writing. Attention is given to gender and culture issues in literature and language courses. Students develop the ability to communicate and a sense of humanity that is increasingly recognized as a valuable tool in the workplace. The concentration of professional communication provides students with knowledge of skills, strategies, and theories necessary for employment in various workplace and technological settings, with options in corporate culture, information architecture, and scientific and technical writing.
