In learning all of this you will read many of the world's greatest books, and you will write many of your own texts. An English major, then, can be an excellent starting point for a wide variety of careers. The Department sponsors several Career Nights annually. These help majors explore some of the careers entered by our graduates. Majors may choose to concentrate in literary studies or in writing.
Many English majors study in summer or semester-long programs in London , Edinburgh, and Oxford.
TCU English faculty regularly teach in these programs. Advanced English majors are encouraged to participate in the Department s internship program. Working with local companies, students gain practical experience as thinkers and writers. We place interns in large and small corporations in the Metroplex every semester. Classes for majors generally enroll 10-25 students.
