Communication skills taught in the English Department are essential in any employment area. English
majors are well prepared for careers in teaching, law, politics, journalism, writing, editing, public relations, advertising, marketing, and management.
English courses fulfill general studies requirements in communications and humanities
and provide background for advanced study programs. They develop communication skills for personal,
employment, and academic use. English Humanities courses encourage personal enrichment through the
study of literature. Courses in English as a second language assist foreign speakers to learn to speak, write, and read English.
Special Skill Levels Needed: The department recommends that students have
keyboarding skills. Papers must be typed. |
