Film Production Diploma to Honours Bachelor of Arts (English major) Degree Transfer Program
Program Information
Studying literature enhances our understanding of the complex ways in which words produce meaning, and the equally complex ways in which literature produces meaning - and how we also produce meaning when we read. Writing and communicating effectively are invaluable assets in a wide variety of fields including: education, publishing, journalism, administration, business, politics, editing, publications research, novel writing, technical writing and law.
Students interested in studying English at Lakehead University will learn how to write and communicate effectively, think creatively and critically, construct valid arguments, analyze a wide variety of texts and arguments, develop distinctive aptitudes and intellectual abilities, and more about the diverse cultures and contexts in which we live our lives.
