Including it on your resume shows you have knowledge and skills even if you don't have any real-world job experience. Just remember not to go overboard. You don't need to list every class, lecture, lab, and practicum you've ever taken. 4

For example, if you're applying to an academic position, put your coursework in a place of pride toward the top of your resume. If it's a technical position, place your coursework credits below your special skills. Otherwise, you could list it in the education section like this: ╺ ╺ Bachelor of Arts, English, University of LMNO Relevant Explication Coursework: Literature, Creative Writing, and Literary 5
