There are a number of factors that make the English Program special. Like all HPU programs, we benefit from the diversity of our community, and from small class size, but there are three factors that make us unique:
FACULTY EXPERTISE
Students in HPU’s English program learn from experienced faculty who are experts in their fields. Many of the English faculty members are practicing creative writers; each term, a reading showcases their poetry, fiction, creative nonfiction, and drama.
IMAGINATIVE AND DIVERSE APPROACHES TO THE STUDY OF LITERATURE
Students can choose from offerings in literature, writing, or film, and the curriculum includes works by British, American, Asian, local, and post-colonial writers. Recent popular courses include Monsters in Literature and Popular Culture; Sex, Power, & Narrative; Theoretical Perspectives on Video Games, Shakespeare on Screen, and Woman and Madness.
HANDS-ON APPROACH
The English program offers many opportunities for creative writing, editorial experience, and teaching/tutoring students in composition. Students who want to work even more extensively on their writing can also complete the Writing Minor by taking only four additional courses. In addition, HPU provides students the option to move directly into the Master’s in Education Program at HPU. Students who choose this option are able to obtain both their BA in English and a Master of Education degree in teaching English in just five years by enrolling in the School of Education’s 4 + 1 Program.

Optional Practical Training or OPT is a period during which students, who have completed their degrees in the USA, are permitted to work for one year on a student visa by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).
