English
English studies broadens your understanding of the world and enhances your ability to communicate effectively.
In Kean's English program, we immerse our students in literature and writing so they can gain a solid foundation for future careers or graduate studies.
Studying contemporary works as well as great literature of the past equips students with the skills and knowledge needed to teach the next generation, or write their own compelling work.
Kean English graduates are creating the stories we consume and share, developing the narrative threads that run through literature, entertainment and more.

Kean's English studies uses classic literature and contemporary writing to teach the next generation of writers, storytellers and thinkers.

I love being a storyteller, whether it’s factual news or creative fiction. I chose English because I love writing, and it’s something that was beckoning and calling to me."
