BA in English

The University of Winnipeg

The 3-Year BA allows flexibility of choice for students who want to sample a wide variety of courses to develop a stronger understanding of language, literature, and culture and to strengthen their reading and writing skills and their powers of critical thinking. This degree provides knowledge and practical skills that are assets in everyday life and in almost any career. Critical readers and writers are required in professions such as law, public service, business, medicine and politics. More directly, the study of English can lead to careers in teaching or careers that involve writing, such as news reporting, publishing, business advertising, and public relations. This program leads to a Bachelor of Arts degree (3-year, 4-year, or Honours) with a Major in English. The 4-Year BA offers students three areas of specialization: Creative Writing Young People’s Texts and Cultures and Screen and Cultural Studies.
