Why Study English at Judson?

Whether you want to be a writer, teacher, lawyer, or social media guru, Judson’s English Department can give you the wide-ranging skills you need to thrive. The Literature major runs the gamut from Homer’s Odyssey to Batman—with Shakespeare, Emily Dickinson, and J.R.R. Tolkien in between—emphasizing the art of in-depth reading. The Writing major concentrates on creative fiction and non-fiction, while the Media Writing major covers web, entertainment, news, and popular print media.

Students in our English Department can choose from one of four majors including a Bachelor of Arts in Interdisciplinary Communications, Bachelor of Arts in Literature, Bachelor of Arts in Writing, or Bachelor of Arts in Media Writing.
