English BA with Licensure
The Bachelor of 艺术 (BA) in English with licensure prepares students with both the critical tools of an English degree and a theoretical frame and practice for teaching. Students completing the program gain invaluable experience in area schools with practicing teachers while being mentored by department faculty. At the conclusion of the program, students are eligible to apply for a Mississippi license to teach middle and high 学校英语.
The English BA with licensure combines a focus on pedagogy with the development of reading, writing, and thinking skills through the study of literature, writing, and 语言. Students follow a degree plan that begins with an introduction to critical approaches to literary studies, surveys in British and American literature, and racially and ethnically diverse writers. Coursework then proceeds to more specialized classes of a student’s choosing on topics such as adolescent literature, Shakespeare, history of the English 语言, and creative writing. At the same time, students will take a sequence of courses in methods of teaching, where they gain experience in area schools, culminating in the immersive apprenticeship of student teaching.
Faculty teaching in the program are active in the National Council of Teachers of English, the National Writing Project, and local school districts.
