English|


Courses:


First-Year Writing Seminars Recommended for Prospective Majors:


Creative Writing:


Students usually begin their work in Creative Writing with ENGL 2800  or ENGL 2810 , and only after completion of the First-Year Writing Seminar requirement. Please note that either ENGL 2800  or ENGL 2810  is the recommended prerequisite for 3000-level creative writing courses. ENGL 2800  and ENGL 2810  may satisfy a distribution requirement in your college (please check with your college advisor). ENGL 3820 ENGL 3830 , ENGL 3840 ENGL 3850 , and ENGL 4800 ENGL 4810  are approved for the English major.

Gateway Courses: Introductions to Literary Study:


Two of these courses are required for English majors, and strongly suggested as the first courses in English taken with or after the First-Year Writing Seminar. They are recommended for all other students as introductions to literary study in English. Students may take Gateway courses in any order; lower-numbered Gateways are not prerequisites for higher-numbered Gateways.

Courses for Freshmen and Sophomores:


These courses have no prerequisites and are open to freshmen and nonmajors as well as majors and prospective majors.

Courses for Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors:


Courses at the 3000-level are open to sophomores, juniors, and seniors and to others with the permission of the instructor.

Courses for Advanced Undergraduates:


Courses at the 4000-level are open to juniors and seniors and to others by permission of instructor unless other prerequisites are noted.

Courses Primarily for Graduate Students:


Permission of the instructor is a prerequisite for admission to courses numbered in the 6000s. These are intended primarily for graduate students, although qualified undergraduates are sometimes admitted. Undergraduates seeking admission to a 6000-level course should consult the instructor.
