Bachelor of Arts in English - Creative Writing

SUNY New Paltz

The Department of English offers programs designed to enrich students' knowledge of their linguistic, literary and cultural heritage and to develop their skills as writers and critics. Students may choose from Bachelor of Arts (BA) and Bachelor of Science (BS) degree programs in English with concentrations in liberal arts English and creative writing. Minors in English, Creative Writing, and an interdisciplinary minor in Linguistics may appeal to students majoring in complementary academic fields. English concentrations are also available in elementary- and secondary-level educator-preparation programs housed in the School of Education. Department faculty teach students throughout their journey in higher education, offering first-year writing courses, general-education courses, upper-level undergraduate courses, and master’s-level courses.
