The major at Truman State University focuses on language, writing skills, and the theoretical, cultural, and historical diversities that shape literary tradition. Forge your own path and specialty by choosing from nearly 100 diverse courses — from Beowulf to gender theory, film studies to Russian drama, linguistics to children’s literature.
Small Classes & Individual Attention
Our faculty are deeply knowledgeable about their subject, whether it be Emily Dickinson’s poems, the study of how novels are made into films, or the deep structure of language, but most of all they love teaching. In class you’ll have the pleasure of discussing writers who have changed the way we think about ourselves and the world. In Truman’s English program you won’t just read more books, you’ll think broadly and adventurously about the unique power of language and literature to shape our lives and transform our world.
Careers
Our graduates have gone on to careers with diverse companies and fields including a recent alumna who already has a major novel contract and another successful graduate who has written for multiple TV shows.
