The Carl C. Carlie Linguistics Fellowship was created by Joan Berry, a former student, and her husband Charles Berry in honor of Joan’s grandfather Carl C. Carlie. The fellowship amount will be approximately $680 and will be awarded in the fall semester to a graduate student in linguistics in the Department of English.

Writing, rhetorics and literacies (WRL) at ASU works on the cutting edge of technology, language use, and design. Across all of our programs, WRL faculty teach strategies for inquiry: the ways that communication creates knowledge, and how texts, meanings, and communication are constructed, circulated, reacted to, and repurposed over time and across space.

In ASU’s English literature program, students examine texts from the classics to contemporary, from speculative to satirical, from popular to poetic. The program offers myriad ways to approach literatures and the cultures that produce and circulate them, with specialties in borderland studies, environmental humanities, health humanities, Indigeneity, medieval and Renaissance studies (especially explorations of race in the Early Modern period), translation, and more.

The Linguistics and Applied Linguistics | TESOL program area at Arizona State University advances the study and practice of language, language learning, and language teaching as forces for inclusion, connection, and social transformation. We prepare students to thrive as teachers, researchers, and professionals who work with language in a variety of ways, engaging locally in Arizona and around the world to promote educational and social well-being.

The Department of English’s Film and Media Event series brings artists, industry executives, and scholars to ASU for presentations or short residencies throughout the academic year.

For more information about FMS events, please contact Jessica Lee, Program Manager.

ASU’s program in film and media studies provides a comprehensive look at film, television, and digital media, including screenwriting, videogames, and social media. Offering both undergraduate and graduate degrees, the program provides students with skills that can be applied to careers within and outside of the film and media industries.
