Literature graduates excel in government, business, law, and even science\u2014wherever articulate and creative expression is valued. And of course, the study of literature is excellent preparation for elementary or secondary teaching.<\/p>\n<p>Â鶹´«Ã½\u2019s Literature majors make valuable connections in the community and professional world through coursework, internships, co-ops, and service learning. They thrive in the worlds of publishing, writing, law, journalism, diplomacy, public relations, higher education, and library sciences.<\/p>\n<p>Visit our Success Stories page and meet our graduates and current students: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ramapo.edu\/major-literature\/success-stories\/\">https:\/\/www.ramapo.edu\/major-literature\/success-stories\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The Literature major does more than prepare students for the working world; it fosters thoughtful, informed citizenship. Students develop the critical thinking, reading, research, and writing skills essential in our increasingly interconnected world. As literary critic M. H. Abrams writes, the study of literature \u201cshows you possibilities you haven\u2019t thought of. It enables you to live the lives of other people than yourself.\u201d Our students engage their imaginations through the study of literary texts that contain the history of our world\u2014as that history actually unfolded and as it might have.<\/p>\n<p>The program balances American, British, world literatures, and creative writing through survey, seminar, and workshop courses.\u00a0 Students study genre, form, period, and theme; they develop skills in reading, criticism, and creative writing. Courses emphasize the interdisciplinary and multicultural dimensions of literature and life, firing the imagination while preparing students for careers or graduate education. Literature is central to the College\u2019s liberal arts mission; literature takes in the entire world, and promotes critically informed global citizens.<\/p>\n<p>Besides pursuing a Literature major, students may choose to minor or concentrate in Creative Writing. Our students also edit <em>Trillium<\/em>, the college\u2019s literary magazine. The Literature Club and Â鶹´«Ã½\u2019s Chapter of the national English Honor Society are among the most engaged and successful student organizations on campus.<\/p>\n<p>Literature is central to the College\u2019s liberal arts mission, at the very heart of its focus on interdisciplinary, multiculturalism, and global connection.\u00a0 The major is offered by the Salameno School of Humanities and Global Studies and leads to a B.A. degree.\u00a0 The Literature Program also offers two minors:\u00a0 Literature or Creative Writing.\u00a0 Some Literature Majors choose to pursue a concentration in Creative Writing.<\/p>\n<p>Please visit: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ramapo.edu\/major-literature\/\">https:\/\/www.ramapo.edu\/major-literature\/<\/a> to learn more about he major, minor, and
