Below is a sample program provided to give you an idea about how to structure your coursework. The premise guiding this proposed sequence is that you will take a full-load each fall and spring and not take any courses during the summer. Your individual program may differ greatly based on how many courses you plan to take each semester, your foreign language study background, and numerous other issues, so please contact Dr. Michael Tierce (770.423.6612 or mtierce@kennesaw.edu) if you have questions about your specific program.

Incoming Freshmen are strongly encouraged to complete Engl 1101 their first semester, Engl 1102 their second semester, and Engl 2110 their third semester. Engl 2110 is the prerequisite for all required English courses beyond the general education level, so it is imperative to take it as soon as possible.
Once Engl 2110 has been completed, English majors are encouraged to take Engl 2145 as soon as possible. This is our gateway or introduction to the major course.
Because the English degree is a BA, students are required to take a foreign language through the 2002 level. The vast majority of our majors have to begin their language study at the 1001 level, which means they need four semesters to get to 2002. We therefore recommend that they begin their language study no later than their third semester at KSU. |
