As an English student, immersing yourself in literary genres such as fiction and poetry is just the beginning. Youll expand on this knowledge to study society, culture, media, and gender in a variety of contemporary and historical contexts. In doing so, youll sharpen your communication skills, gain cross-cultural perspectives, and develop proficiency in linguistic, critical, and analytical thinking.<br><br>The core of the program reflects a traditional approach to English studies, including literary, historical and genre-based courses. What makes the department distinctive, however, is the cross-listing of a number of its courses with other disciplines or programs, such as Atlantic Canada Studies, Linguistics, Irish Studies, and Creative Writing.

A degree in English provides a solid foundation for a range of careers, from education and communications, to publishing and law.
