The program offers graduate work leading to
the Doctor of Philosophy in literature, the Master of Arts

The Literature faculty is strong in traditional areas of literary
scholarship with concentrations in criticism, cultural
studies, film, and rhetoric and composition. The Creative Writing
faculty includes nationally recognized writers in poetry, fiction,
nonfiction, and translation. Temple Ph.D.’s in English literature primarily
find employment, both full-time and part-time, in college and
university departments of English. Temple M.A.’s in English
literature primarily find employment at the high school or preparatory
school, in editing or publishing, or as professional
writers. Temple M.A.’s in creative writing
find employment as writers, teachers, publicists, writing consultants,
or publishers; and they also go on to doctoral study in English
or other disciplines.
