English is not just a language we speak; it is an art form, a history, and an expression of thought and being. By studying English you gain a comprehensive understanding of its language and literature, while exploring its connection to other areas of study and everyday life. Through developing invaluable skills in critical reading, writing, analysis, and research, you become more flexible and creative in your thinking as well as improving your abilities as a communicator — abilities that are an asset for any future career.
Program Options
Students can enroll in an Honours degree or certificate, Major, Combined Major, Concentration, Minor in English Literature, or the Writing Minor. Any Mount undergraduate student can take individual courses as electives, and many of our courses are relevant to students interested in Cultural Studies and Women’s Studies.

Small class sizes
English at the Mount prides itself on its small class sizes. Whether in Writing workshops of no more than 25 students or in literature classes of 20 to 30 people, you will have the opportunity for close interaction with other students and your professors, ensuring a receptive space for developing key skills in critical thinking and persuasive, clear communication. In addition, your work is graded by your professor, who is able to give you ample feedback on your progress and meet with you in person as needed.
Experiential (hands-on) learning
The Mount has long been a leader in experiential learning, and we in the English Department provide students with many opportunities to develop skills they can apply to real-world experiences. Experiential learning includes a wide range of work-integrated learning, including co-op work terms, internships, practicums, volunteerism, research projects and service learning. Read more »

Possession of the minimum entrance requirements listed below does not guarantee admission to the University. In addition, admission to a specific program does not guarantee admission to all programs offered. Additional program requirements are given after basic entrance requirements are described.
The University may consider, on an individual basis, any applicants who do not possess the formal requirements but who may be otherwise qualified for admission.
Degree programs are described in terms of the number of units required. A traditional full-time study pattern is to complete 5.0 units per academic year, thus a 15.0 unit program could be described as “three year”; a 20.0 unit program as “four year” and so forth.
When grade XI and XII are used below, they refer to Nova Scotia high school grade-level courses or to their equivalencies as determined by the Admissions Office.
