Write Your Future.
In the Information Age, no skills are more valuable than reading and writing. This explains recent employment studies which show growing corporate demand for graduates of English studies programs. Careers in technical writing and teaching English are particularly high-growth areas.
English in Public Life
A focus on language in public life is a hallmark of IUP's English degree programs.
Recently, a poem by IUP English major Clare Welsh was selected and performed as a gift from IUP graduate and undergraduate students to help mark the inauguration of President Michael A. Driscoll. Ms. Welsh’s poem, “The Last Wall”, is an outstanding example of writing that enriches such events by sounding their deepest themes.
The IUP English Department congratulates Ms. Welsh and thanks her for her indelible literary contribution to the life and history of IUP.
“The Last Wall” was read during the Inauguration ceremony by Theater major John Glen Vandermark.
