What it isEnglish at Windsor combines the study of literature, creative writing, and comparative texts across cultures and time periods. You'll analyze existing works and develop your own writing skills rather than focusing purely on how language works. The co-op option lets you intern at publishing houses, media companies, or writing organizations while you study, which suits students who want real workplace experience alongside their degree.A four-year Bachelor of Arts in English is a program where you study literature, writing, and language through close reading of texts from different periods, cultures, and genres. You'll analyze how stories, poems, and essays work and what they mean, rather than learning creative writing as your main focus. This suits people who enjoy thinking critically about books and ideas, and who want depth in a humanities subject.You study English literature and language alongside comparative texts from other cultures and ancient languages. Unlike a straight English program, this one builds in cross-cultural perspectives, so you're reading works in translation and examining how stories and ideas travel across languages and time periods. It suits people who like close reading, cultural depth, and aren't intimidated by unfamiliar texts.You study how people, societies, and cultures have changed over time, using primary sources like documents, artifacts, and written records. History at Windsor lets you focus on specific regions or periods — such as Classical civilizations, East Asia, or Celtic cultures — and you can combine it with another subject as a double major. This program suits people curious about why the world works the way it does and who want to develop research and critical thinking skills applicable across many careers.
