What Can You Do With An English Degree? | Seton Hill University

One of our seniors interviewed recent graduates for her Honors project.

It’s all too common for English majors to hear “What can you do with an English degree?” from well-meaning relatives and friends, implying that the most viable career for an English major is that of a “starving artist.” So what can you do with an English degree? Well, it turns out, you can do a lot of things. Seton Hill English graduates share their stories of how the English program at Seton Hill helped them land fulfilling careers where they use English everyday. —Seton Hill University
