College of Arts & Sciences
The College of Arts & Sciences includes the undergraduate Bible degree, the general education core, leadership training, ministry skills, and a variety of professional majors and minors. Over 70 percent of CIU’s bachelor degrees come from the College of Arts and Sciences!
What makes CIU’s Applied English Major a great option?
- English for mission purposes,
- English for language and culture – literature and linguistics, with a cross-cultural focus,
- Preparation for graduate school or the market place,
- An undergraduate English degree that opens employment and/or ministry opportunities in the field before graduate school.
Can I go straight into teaching English at a public or private high school or middle school with the Applied English major?
Probably not. Teaching at the high school or middle school level in public schools in the United States or in internationally accredited schools requires various forms of certification, which generally can be met with study beyond the undergraduate level.
