Bachelor of Arts [B.A] (English - Literature)
Field of Study:
$39,400/Yr
Within one semester of acceptance into the major, the student must submit to the Department a written Declaration of Focus defining a field of inquiry structured around Literature and/or Writing and?no fewer than three courses outside the English department, as well as the most relevant ENG courses.
The Declaration of Focus statement is a preliminary articulation of the student?s understanding of how ENG courses and the named other courses cohere in a field of emphasis, to develop the professional and intellectual goals the student establishes for her/his education. In consultation with the advisor, the statement of focus is regularly reviewed and may be revised to accommodate shifts of emphasis in the student?s curricular choices. Possible foci are almost infinite in number, and might develop (for example) around questions of language, translation, visual culture, gender, race, class, identity politics, representation, cultural or regional studies, material culture, quantitative analysis in the humanities, new media and digital humanisms, journalism and media, SLIS, literacies in English, or other themes of the student?s choosing. Courses relating to the Focus need not all come from the same program or department, but they must form a coherent group. Courses with the ENG rubric will not count as courses outside the major. An updated focus statement and a reflection on the success and evolution of the collateral focus must be included in the English Portfolio, which is also signed by the advisor and submitted to the Department in order to complete a major in English.
