Creative Writing is a major in the Department of English and Creative Writing.  For over forty years undergraduate student writers have been receiving degrees in creative writing from Oswego.  The poet Lewis Turco established creative writing at Oswego in 1963 and since then the program has grown to encompass 150 majors and minors, five full-time faculty writers, and a host of visiting and adjunct writers.  Students in the program may concentrate in poetry, fiction, playwriting, screenwriting, and a variety of nonfiction forms.  Oswego State now has one of the premiere degree-granting undergraduate creative writing programs in the country.
