The English department is one of the largest in the university, both in terms of the number of faculty and the number of majoring students.
We are consequently able to offer unusually rich opportunities for study in three closely related areas: literature, creative writing, and theater.
The links at left will take you to pages offering information about all those areas of study, as well as about our faculty and some of the distinctive aspects of our program, including the London Study Group, our Fellowship in Creative Writing, and the annual series of poetry readings.
If you have questions or would like to receive additional information, please contact us.
