📚About the Program

Bachelor’s in English at Ambrose University

To take an English degree is to study the ins-and-outs of well-used language, to consider the minds of great writers and the ideas that moved them. It’s to ask questions about the relationship between what’s true and what’s beautiful, between virtue and happiness, nature and art, reasoning and imagining. And while you’re doing that, you’ll gain valuable skills in thinking and writing clearly—skills that will give you a leg up in whatever career you choose to pursue. Show less
