English Department Job Placement Information

The English Department has compiled job placement information for our graduates. Between spring 2014 and 2018, fifty-one students graduated with majors in English, Creative Writing, and Integrated Language Arts. The Chair of English has been able to track all but two of these majors. A list of jobs and graduate degrees in progress for our forty-nine known graduates can be seen at englishatashland.blogspot.com

In this list, most positions are full-time, and although some of our graduates are working in part-time positions, they are in the minority. Our graduates in Integrated Language Arts education find jobs in the Ohio region or in other parts of the country soon after graduation, but some decide to branch out into other careers, using their broad preparation in critical thinking and writing to succeed in a variety of employment settings. In general, although we are happy to see students landing jobs in fields that one might associate with writing and publishing, we are even happier to observe that our students can thrive in many different kinds of environments, thus proving our claims about the flexibility of our majors.
