Overview

The English Communication Major is offered by St. Mary's University . The program offers students the opportunity to hone their critical thinking and writing abilities, integrating these with media-production skills, in preparation for rewarding careers and enriched lives in a rapidly changing world.

Key Facts

Because the degree is rooted in the humanities, students explore various areas in literature and theory to develop their metaphorical thinking and creative abilities. Communication skills — particularly writing — are the most valued skills employers are looking for in college graduates, according to recent research conducted by the National Association of Colleges and Employers and the National Commission on Writing. The English Communication degree examines how the power of language and image is used to promote the common good as students wrestle with how their own communication practices enhance not only their personal and professional pursuits, but also their engagement in the civic realm.
