The New Four-Year Major
Posted on: Nov 24, 2016
The English Department is excited to announce a major update to the Four-Year Major in English. This change will come into effect in the fall of 2017. Students already in the program will be able to adopt the new program or follow the current calendar.
The new major will replace both the Basic Program and the Enhanced Program. The result is a more streamlined, flexible program that will suit all our students:

42-60 credits required, to include:
a) 6 credits of first year ENG
