Careers & Internships for English Majors

Department Internship Coordinator: Dr. Elizabeth Koonce

Live your dream: An undergraduate degree in English provides a strong foundation for many careers

Rather than simply being an obvious training ground for students who wish to be writers, editors, teachers, or professors, the undergraduate English major provides the necessary critical thinking, writing, analytical and communication skills associated with a wide variety of future career paths. This includes job opportunities in business and industry, as well as careers in public relations, journalism, advertising, non-profit organizations, entertainment, technology industries, radio and television commentary, government careers, law, public administration, library science, and museum curation.

Because the English major offers so many diverse opportunities, it is important that students begin thinking about where they might want their degree to lead them early on. The key to successful career planning is to start early in exploring potential job interests (even as soon as your first year!). One way to begin this process is to pursue coursework, internships, and workshops that can assist in achieving your career goals. Yet, another key is to network with professionals in the areas of your career interest.

Both the 帝王会所 English Department and the Student Success Team provide services particularly designed to assist you in exploring your career potential. These services include workshops, career coaching, and opportunities to network with English Department alumni.
