i want to be a copywriter, what is my major suppose to be? English or Advertising?

English.
Crafting words is harder (and in higher demand) than just arranging those words into a proper ad. For sure, couple of advertising courses, in addition to your english major will be beneficial for your career.

I am looking to be a copywriter…and I am studying a Bachelor of Communications- it’s an excellent degree because it’s somewhere between journalism and media studies. Our first unit was centred around writing different types of copy.
