University of Missouri--Kansas City. Department of English

 Organization

Biography

The University of Kansas City offered English courses since it opened in 1933. The department was housed under University of Missouri--Kansas City's College of Arts and Sciences until UMKC Forward's academic realignment. Its administrative and academic home is now under the School of Humanities and Social Sciences as the Department of English Language and Literature as of July 2022.

The Department of English and the School of Humanities and Social Sciences publish New Letters, a continuation of The University Review. The department also sponsors the publication of Number One, a magazine of student poetry and fiction, and The Sosland Journal, a collection of award-winning student essays from the Ilus W. Davis contest.
