Key Facts

English majors learn and practice critical thinking and effective communication, preparing them for a variety of careers. Small classes at JBU facilitate unique accountability to your own writing style and voice when reading, writing and analyzing literature. As an English major, you help facilitate events, mingle with professional artists and help cultivate a love for the written word. Read your creative work at poetry slams. If you’re motivated, complete senior projects in the form of short novels, plays, or poems. Tailor your degree toward an emphasis in creative writing or literature to equip you with the knowledge to polish your craft. Take classes such as C.S.
