The Department of English in the College of Arts and Humanities strives to produce graduates who understand the art and science of language, literature, and writing as exemplified by a free exchange of ideas in an open, inclusive, and respectful student-centered environment, a commitment to academic excellence, and collaborative support for each learner's individual academic achievement.
