<p>What do you all know about the English department at CMU? I am hoping to attend as a BHA in theatre and english and am a little concerned because CMU's great reputation comes mostly from their engineering and computer science programs. Any information about class sizes, quality of education, etc. is appreciated. Thank you!</p>
<p>English or writing in particular? The English program is good - not amazing, not a liberal arts level of English program - but the writing programs are very, very good. We have lots of job opportunities and more available internships than people to fill them. Class sizes in the English department as a whole rarely exceed 25 people. My current workshops are 8-13 and my lecture-style courses are 15-25 students.</p>
