Degrees and Certificates Offered
Creative Writing, AA
Overview
The study of English is essential for any career. We all need to be able to communicate verbally and in written form. We are often judged as to our intelligence and level of competence by how well we use language. In addition, by learning how others think and communicate their experiences, we expand our own understanding of the world and its people. Through the study of literature and our own reaction to it, we come to understand ourselves and our place in the world on a deeper level.
