Welcome from the Head
Welcome to the web site of the Department of English at Texas A&M University! With 90 faculty, 100 graduate students, and 700 undergraduate majors, we feature an innovative range of courses and programs built upon a long tradition of study in literature and language, writing and reading, culture and interpretation. Rooted in British and American literary scholarship, the interests of our faculty and students extend to creative writing, rhetoric and discourse studies, gender and women's studies, film and technology, and a wide range of literatures and varieties of English, including African American and African Diaspora, Latina/o, Asian American, and South Asian studies. We frequently host lectures, symposia, and conferences that bring scholars, writers, and teachers from around the world to Texas A&M. In turn, we are represented by a faculty with international range and reputation and by the successes of our students in academia, industry, and the professions. Details about departmental events, our curricula, degree programs, faculty, and staff are available on this site. For additional information, please visit our contact page.M. Jimmie Killingsworth
