Bachelor of Arts - English LiteratureAdmissions | Student Stories | Student Blogs Our ProgramThe English program at Ambrose is distinctive. It not only combines traditional literary studies with contemporary literary theory but also offers unique courses, such as EN 275 Spiritual Autobiographies that foreground the ways in which the entire program integrates faith and learning. Ambrose’s program begins with the British tradition and extends to the broader realms of Canadian, American, and other English literatures. This approach covers foundational periods, movements, and authors as well as contemporary expressions of literature. The Bachelor of Arts: English Literature program is available in a Major, Concentration or a Minor. Your FutureEnglish Literature graduates will be prepared to enter a wide range of vocations that require writing competence, analytical thought, and a broad base of literary knowledge. Because English is best defined as a single educational path to many career opportunities—teacher, writer, editor, journalist, or librarian to name but a few—it provides ample opportunity for its graduates to serve and lead in church and society. Our program has an excellent track record and is an excellent foundation for earning students admission into competitive primary education and after-degree programs such as law. Graduates also regularly find work teaching English as a second language. Our four year Major prepares students to enter graduate programs Examples of Courses Offered
Five Grade 12 level courses including English 30-1, Pure or Applied Math 30 or a second language with a minimum average on the five courses of 60%.
