RIT’s English degree pairs the study of writing, literature, and linguistics with the digital tools you need to excel in today’s professional environments.
Experiential Learning
Cooperative Education and Internships
Cooperative education, or co-op for short, is full-time, paid work experience in your field of study. And it sets RIT graduates apart from their competitors. It’s exposure–early and often–to a variety of professional work environments, career paths, and industries. RIT co-op is designed for your success.
Students in the English major are encouraged to complete a cooperative education, internship, or study abroad experience.
