Professional Writing and Editing
Find a purposeful and meaningful career expressing your creative gifts as a professional writer:
- Work in fields related to your concentration in digital arts, marketing, communication, or creative writing.
- A supportive community of writers participate in off-campus retreats and encourages membership of the international honors society, Sigma Tau Delta. Members of the honor society can attend social events, outings to theater performances, and participate in community service.
- Become who you’re meant to be through deep study of faith-relevant authors and a faith-welcoming learning environment.
“In today's competitive job market, there are many careers that require superior writing skills. The new Professional Writing and Editing program at Malone will prepare students for a wide variety of career opportunities. Strong writing is among the top marketable skills a student needs to find success in many fields, not just in jobs that focus on writing exclusively.”
-Kimberly Kenny, Director, McKinley Museum
“I wish this new program would have been an option at Malone when I was a student! I think the digital design class, especially, was my biggest learning curve in the publishing and editing workplace. That additional preparation would have been helpful.”
-Amanda Pennington, Copy Editor and Lead Writer, Innovative Publishing (Louisville, KY)
