Welcome to the Department of English

English, one of Columbus State University's largest departments, offers four tracks leading to the Bachelor of Arts in English and two semesters of First Year Composition:

What they all have in common is their application to almost any field of employment and their emphasis on communication skills. Through the reading of texts, the writing of papers and class discussion on various topics, our majors learn to synthesize, analyze and think critically. They gain cultural awareness, historical perspective and clarification of values.

The department boasts a productive and professionally diverse faculty involved in a wide range of academic endeavors. You can find out information about faculty members through their profiles in the faculty section.

Woodall Hall 104 is the main department office. The department chair's office is Woodall Hall 152. We welcome the opportunity to share information about our major programs, minor programs, and student clubs and organizations.
