Department of English

College of humanities, main navigation, about the program.

student studying

The undergraduate program in the Department of English is frequently recognized as one of the strongest in the university. The variety of courses and the quality of the faculty create an excellent environment for undergraduate education. Most English courses are taught by full-time faculty, and most have fewer than 40 students. As a result, English majors at the University of Utah receive a level of personal attention not possible at most large public universities. Our faculty members are deeply committed to their students and consistently win teaching awards.

A degree in English prepares you for no particular job because it prepares you for any job. Instead of being given problems to solve, English majors discover them; instead of memorizing narratives, they challenge them; they develop an adaptable creative intelligence, learning to analyze complex systems and understand nuance. English majors become lawyers, doctors, politicians, activists, artists, educators, scholars, journalists, advertisers, entrepreneurs, and CEOs—producers of culture rather than consumers of it.

The kind of versatility trained by English is especially valuable in today’s economy because those with the most successful careers often move between jobs and even fields. At the core of the English major lies the conviction that the analytical agility fostered by rigorous and imaginative thinking constitutes the best preparation for the world that awaits students after graduation.

University of Utah

Utah, united states.

The University of Utah offers a vibrant and highly successful program exploring creative writing, committed on all levels to developing well-rounded practitioners with substantial backgrounds in fiction, nonfiction, poetry, digital writing practices, hybrid and other experimental forms, book arts, and literary history and theory.

Our program hosts a dynamic reading series and opportunities for interaction with visiting authors and scholars. Undergraduates are introduced to a variety of writing lives through small workshops and intensive focus on their work, while studying the larger ecology of contemporary publishing. In our graduate program, home to Quarterly West and Western Humanities Review, students intensify and deepen their investigation. We offer a modular MFA in Environmental Humanities, the American West, or Book Arts. Many graduates in our PhD Program, which Atlantic Monthly rated as among the top five in the country, publish widely in literary journals, place books before or soon after completing the program, win national and international awards, oversee and participate in a graduate reading series, and go on to find good academic positions.

Our renowned and aesthetically diverse faculty, whose honors include Guggenheim and NEA fellowships, Pushcart Prizes, the Berlin Prize, and other prestigious recognition of their creative work, scholarship, and teaching, includes Katharine Coles, Michael Mejia, Lance Olsen, Jacqueline Osherow, Paisley Rekdal, and Lindsey Drager.

Our students have published in national literary magazines and journals, and recent work has won the AWP Award in Poetry, the Yale Younger Poets Prize, National Endowment for the Arts Fellowships, the PEN/Joyce Osterweil Award, the Flannery O'Connor Award, the Walt Whitman Prize and the National Book Critics Circle Award among many other prizes and achievements.

All PhD students, and many of our MFA students, receive a comprehensive support package, and gain valuable teaching training and experience over the course of their degree. For more information about the program, faculty, past and present reading series, and available graduate student funding and fellowships, please visit our website.

By contrast with many similar departments, students in our graduate program are not segregated by field or degree and can take the same courses together. Students also benefit from a diverse and intellectually rigorous course of study. Students at all levels can participate in editing two national literary magazines, QUARTERLY WEST and WESTERN HUMANITIES REVIEW, as well as work on the internationally renowned independent press FC2. The Program's Guest Writers Series brings in nationally renowned poets and writers, such as Robert Hass, Michael Cunningham, Percival Everett, Cole Swenson, A. Van Jordan, Ben Marcus and JoAnn Beard, while the graduate students run their own popular reading series, The Working Dog.

To open a book is to expose the intimate details of story, experience, and idea. Actually creating a book, however, is an art in itself. A part of the J. Willard Marriott Library since 1995, the Book Arts Program at the University of Utah champions wide-ranging explorations of the book. In the fully-equipped book arts studio, bookbinders, printers, and book artists utilize type, letterpress, photo engravings, and bookbinding equipment as they combine traditional techniques with modern aesthetics and technology. The Book Arts Program promotes involvement with the art of the book, and students take classes exploring letterpress printing, bookbinding, artists' books, and typography. Studio access is then provided to students who have completed foundation courses.

Meet with a for more information and to declare.

Students interested in studying book arts also have the option of a book arts emphasis in the . 

Book Arts students have a number of academic and professional resources available to them. Take part in program workshops to additionally enhance your skills, or attend program exhibitions that celebrate and explore both the traditional and innovative arts of the book. Career opportunities in book arts include book designing, bookbinding, restoration, and papermaking. Put your skills to work in settings like museums and libraries, or freelance and help private collectors maintain their printed arts.
