Undergraduate Foundation Program + Bachelor of Arts - English - Literary Studies

Undergraduate Foundation Program WSU’s Undergraduate Foundation program provides additional academic and/or English language support and personalized advising to help students smoothly transition to full university study. Students are unconditionally admitted to the university and graduate in the same amount of time as direct-entry students – they are just provided with additional support courses. Bachelor of Arts - English - Literary Studies Literary studies, an option in the English major, provides a general liberal arts education emphasizing literature, critical thinking, and writing. The program of study is flexible and allows English majors to pursue electives, minors, and second majors in other departments; to focus on areas of special interest within the major; and to tailor their studies according to personal and professional interests. Literary studies students can pursue interdisciplinary focus areas such as international literature, philosophy, art, architecture, and music by taking advantage of courses offered jointly by the foreign languages department and English department. Many English courses provide direct experience and training in computer tools, software, and multimedia modes for research, writing, and publication.
