• The undergraduate program in the Department of English is frequently recognized as one of the strongest in the university. The variety of courses and the quality of the faculty create an excellent environment for undergraduate education. Most English courses are taught by full-time faculty, and most have fewer than 40 students.
  • As a result, English majors at the University of Utah receive a level of personal attention not possible at most large public universities. The faculty members are deeply committed to their students and consistently win teaching awards.
  • A degree in English prepares you for no particular job because it prepares them for any job. Instead of being given problems to solve, English majors discover them; instead of memorizing narratives, they challenge them; they develop an adaptable creative intelligence, learning to analyze complex systems and understand nuance.
