Upon graduation, our alumni have gone on to study at some of the top graduate writing programs in the country, including the Iowa Writers Workshop and Columbia University. Many of our alumni are working in the publishing industry as editors and reporters, and many land positions working in new media as content generators and professional writers for corporations. An undergraduate degree in Creative and Professional Writing is also excellent preparation for law school, careers in social services, and teaching.
