The English Department at Slippery Rock University offers undergraduate majors and minors in the study of literature and the study of language and writing.  Courses in literature, film, and linguistics, as well as creative, technical, and business writing, develop skills that will be useful in fields such as law, public relations, government, business, publishing, teaching, and advertising.  Faculty members encourage students to foster their own interests in technical analysis and interpretation, literary theory, ethics, and multicultural literatures.  The English Department also offers a Master of Arts degree that further develops students' competencies in writing and literary analysis for careers in teaching, other professional fields, and further graduate work.
