You may love reading and writing, but you may also be asking, "What can I do with an English degree?"

When you earn an English degree from DePauw, you prepare yourself for countless career opportunities.

Our English alums work in fields as far-reaching as geology, computer science, and film-making. At the center of our curriculum are skills that all employers are looking for: excellent written and spoken communication, creativity and problem-solving, and rigorous critical thinking.
