Department of English

Professional & Technical Writing

The professional and technical writing option combines the study of English and American literature with an introduction to writing found in the professional workplace. This 36-hour program allows undergraduates to concentrate their studies in professional writing, wherein they will master special writing skills demanded by industry, business, government, and the professions. The English Department may arrange semester-long internships with local businesses, industries, and professional organizations. Interns will earn three credit hours and, in some cases, receive compensation from their employers for their duties.
