Online English Degree Program Overview

If English majors get a bad rap, why did so many of today’s greatest minds choose English degrees? Barbara Walters, John Legend, Steven Spielberg – the list goes on and on.

Do you have a talent for diving into a topic and finding intriguing connections? Do you have a natural curiosity, a love for learning and a passion for storytelling? If you answered yes to all of the above, you’re a perfect fit for SNHU’s online Bachelor of Arts (BA) in English Language and Literature.

As an English major, you’ll gain a vital skill set that’s highly sought after. That same skill set is also crucial to long-term career growth in virtually any field.

In a wide-ranging study by Burning Glass Technologies, writing ranked third among most requested “soft skills.” At the same time, 80% of employers voiced frustration at the lack of ability graduates demonstrated in this area.1 In nearly every industry, the ability to harness the power of the written word has emerged as one of the 21st century’s most critical career skills.

Like all liberal arts majors, English degree programs develop enduring skills that transfer easily to nearly every profession. This English degree focuses on many of the most valued skills highlighted in the Burning Glass Technologies report, including:

• Attention to detail
• Creativity and presentation skills
• Collaboration and communication
• Organization and research

As an English major, you might be asked to interpret implied meaning in a text or support an idea with a logical, organized argument. You might need to proofread a paper or research and document sources. You might make an oral presentation or team up with peers. In each case, you’ll be constantly improving these skills throughout your coursework.

“I think people don’t think as widely as they might about areas they can go into with an English degree,” said SNHU associate dean of liberal arts Dr. Christopher Lee. “Every professional career wants you to read something and have a comprehensive understanding of the material. Those are all the things that are learned studying English.”

Learn how to:

• Build critical thinking, research and problem-solving skills
• Develop cultural literacy across periods and places
• Analyze literary form, genre, structure and style
• Construct a logical, organized argument
• Team up with peers on group projects

Career Outlook

This online English degree opens up a diverse range of career choices. You can take the traditional route and go into advertising, marketing or public relations. Or you can choose human resources, management, sales or nonprofit administration. With additional training and certification, you could also explore teaching as a career path.

Likewise, the program is an excellent springboard for graduate studies in history, political science or a master’s closely related to your English degree. Among your online options at SNHU are the MA in Communication, MA in English, MA in English & Creative Writing and MFA in Creative Writing.

The online English degree curriculum provides built-in career opportunities, including:

• Up to 6 credits in experiential learning or internship
• 36 free electives that let you minor in an area that enhances your marketability, such as project management or professional writing
