Introduction
BA in English Writing, Literature & Publishing
The Bachelor of Arts in English Writing, Literature, and Publishing emphasizes literary history and creative writing, while providing students with critical thinking skills and an introduction to the world of publishing. Whether students plan to pursue a career as a creative or professional writer or pursue graduate work in literary studies, the EWLP Program will be a springboard to future study or a career in the arts or communication fields.
Whether it be playwriting, screenwriting, literary editing or other branches of professional writing, the interdependent relationship between literature, literary history, creativity, writing technique, and final publication are explored in order to imbue students with the confidence and skills to enhance all types of composition and prose.
The curriculum grounds students in all aspects of the craft and enables them to bring these varying elements together, helping them to find their voice, refine their talent, and gain the skills and knowledge needed to succeed in the world of writing and publishing. We have a focus on writing and literature, so students can go on to pursue graduate work in literature or an MFA in Writing.
