Opportunities For 英语 Majors
According to the National Association of Colleges and Employers, “what sets two equally qualified job candidates apart can be as simple as who has the better communication skills.” 英语 majors learn how to write, analyze material and communicate effectively. When not in the classroom, our University, and the Department of 英语, 写作 and Modern Languages, afford you the chance to practice these skills outside the classroom.
Academic Opportunities
As an 英语 major, you can combine your degree with a related minor, 双学位, or a pre-professional program; or transition directly into our MAEd program. Our 英语 students can also choose to earn their CA credential while they earn their undergraduate degree.
Extracurricular Activities
