English Major

Intended Learning Outcomes

Students will:

1. Analyze a range of literatures from diverse cultures, periods, and geographical regions.
2. Analyze literary and cultural texts, using a variety of interpretive methods, theoretical approaches, and critical terminologies.
3. Evaluate how literary and cultural texts reflect power and inequality.
4. Communicate clearly and effectively about literary and cultural forms.

Note: The Education Department has a set of ILOs for students pursuing teaching licensure (in our case, the English with CAL option). Because all students who pursue the English with CAL option need to fulfill the requirements for an Education major, it makes sense to have the Education Department assess that side of things.
