What can you do with a degree in English?

Empowering. Creative. Inspiring.

The question you should ask isn't "What can I do with an English degree?" Rather, the question you should ask is "What can't I do with a degree in English!" A command of the English language, coupled with the intuitive and interpretive skills acquired in the studies of composition and literature, is one of the most important assets in any work environment. Graduates with excellent writing skills and the ability to interpret the relevance of information are highly sought after by Human Resource Directors.

With an English degree from ETSU you are creating your own professional opportunities, including careers in business, education, politics, law, and the creative arts. The possibilities are endless. Michael Eisner, CEO at Disney, Matt Damon and Joan Cusack, successful actors, Mario Cuomo, a renowned New York politician, and Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas were all English majors. Your future looks bright with your ETSU English degree.
