Composition Program
CSU-Pueblo's English degree program offers small classes and individual attention from a highly qualified faculty. Through their choices of English electives, students may focus on the study of the English language, literature, or writing.
CSU-Pueblo English majors develop the skills and knowledge needed to succeed in our changing world.
English Program faculty pride themselves on their availability for individual conferences and their willingness to work with enthusiastic students on independent study projects.
Combining the study of English with other academic programs or graduate study opens doors to careers in college teaching, law, technical writing, sales and marketing, administration, social work and all other areas requiring human interaction.
A minor in professional writing and a minor in creative writing also available, as well as an English major with creative-writing emphasis.
A special-emphasis area offered in conjunction with the Teacher Education Program prepares students to teach in Colorado middle and high schools. In addition, we offer an M.A. program designed for working professionals.
The department also offers special overseas study courses in the summer in such places as London and Stratford-upon-Avon.
English faculty assist writing students in scheduling public readings of their work and in publishing The Hungry Eye literary magazine and Southern Colorado Magazine.
