We have designed our English major programs at NYIT to meet the needs of English majors entering the 21st century. We incorporate new technologies—like online discussion boards, web-based learning environments, and video conferencing—in our courses and encourage innovation in research and program development. Our unique degree and courses provide students with high quality education that emphasizes the following:

A Firm Foundation in Literature: Our core English courses provide a solid background in literary traditions, history, and research.

Technology in Education and Writing: Our computer labs and Distance Learning classrooms bring the specialized world of technology to you.

Multiculturalism: Our degree is specifically oriented to multicultural literature and diverse approaches to the study of literature. Course offerings, faculty, and resources focus on bringing the world and its literature into the classroom.

Educational Consortiums: We are creating links throughout New York State for our Education Degrees.
