Program Overview

By studying English at Ambrose, you’ll not only become familiar with major authors, eras, movements, and literary theories, you’ll also learn to think and write with clarity and confidence. In our liberal arts setting, you’ll complement your literary studies with courses in history, philosophy, psychology, and more. You’ll develop your critical and analytical skills and build confidence in your own ideas as you discuss literary works and theories in small, seminar-style classes. Learn from experienced teachers and researchers and connect with them and your classmates as you grow personally and academically.

So here's the deal:

Take five courses per semester for four years, and you'll complete your English Literature degree
[courses are worth 3 credits and 3 x 5 x 2 x 4 = 120 credits].

A three-year [90 credit] version of this degree is also available.

This is where you can go
