English Program Testimonials
I’ve gotten to know all of my professors really well. I get a lot of one-on-one and face-to-face time with my professors and my peers. The personal attention makes a huge difference. I get access to a lot of amazing opportunities.
Business Administration, English, Political Science
My English professors challenged me to back up my arguments, sharpening my research and writing skills, and gave me the space to safely experiment with both formal and colloquial forms of communication.
English, Neuroscience
As a future physician, I believe my special combination of science and English will benefit my patients and colleagues as I am able to translate complex topics into familiar concepts.
Neuroscience, Writing
I know that I want to write for digital platforms. UNE has helped me realize that. I didn’t even know that was a possibility until I was here.
Communications and Media Arts, English, Writing
UNE always struck me as a remarkable place because students are earnest and hardworking and nice to each other in a unique way.
The English department at UNE may be small, but that is what I love about it. More than a decade later, I still have relationships with my professors who have become lifelong mentors that I continually turn to for advice and they are always willing to support me.
Art, English, History
I really liked the faculty of the English and History Departments at UNE. I became really close with my professors and felt comfortable going to them not just for educational advice.

I was able to bring together all that I had learned from both of my majors and put that knowledge to work in a setting that ended up being very like my real-life work environment, but with all the support I needed...
UNE not only offered me a chance to grow and succeed as a student, but also provided me with a wide range of activities and opportunities on campus and within the Biddeford community.
