Program details

Overview

Brock University's Faculty of Humanities offers three related BA streams under English Language and Literature: English Language and Literature, English and Creative Writing, and Writing, Rhetoric and Discourse Studies. The core English Language and Literature stream introduces students to a wide range of literary forms, historical periods, and theoretical approaches, covering literature from Britain, the United States, Canada, and English-language writing worldwide, and is described as preparation for education and law degrees, public relations and communications careers, or graduate study in library science and English. The Creative Writing stream combines lectures with practical workshop courses examining the craft of literary genres, while the Writing, Rhetoric and Discourse Studies stream pairs practical and theoretical study with instruction across writing genres for students interested in communications, public relations, journalism, and professional writing. It is a four-year degree with minors and certificates also available.
