The Department of English at St. John's University comprises a vibrant, dynamic community of faculty and students exploring literature, writing, and creative arts.The core of the program is our thriving undergraduate Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) major, which is offered to students on the Queens campus and the Staten Island campus. Students may take classes on either campus, and many English undergraduates also study abroad at the St. John's Rome campus, Paris, and elsewhere.The department also offers three graduate programs, including a Bachelor of Arts / Master of Arts (B.A./M.A.) that allows ambitious undergraduates to engage in graduate-level work, a Master of Arts (M.A.) degree, and Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) degree.The department's faculty adds to the intellectual life of St. John's University by producing original works of scholarship, creative arts, and public culture. Prominent national and international organizations, from the National Endowment for the Humanities and the American Council of Learned Societies to the Folger Shakespeare Library and National Public Radio, have recently supported and featured the work of St. John's English faculty.The English department also sponsors an active intellectual life on campus. We organize colloquia and invite outside speakers to speak to our students each semester. We also present public lectures and events organized by department faculty. One popular recurring feature is our "Bookmarks" series, which features conversations with English faculty who have published new books. For details about new and upcoming events, please see the English Department Blog. The department's graduate students founded a scholarly journal in 2003,The St. John's Humanities Review. The journal features book reviews, essays, and interviews by contributors on campus and from around the world. The department also supports a literary journal of student poetry and fiction, Sequoya.
