The M.A. in English Literature
The Department of English houses a terminal masters degree in English literature for students who wish to earn only an M.A. degree or who wish to explore education at the graduate level before committing to a Ph.D. program. At any point in the M.A. program, a student may apply to the Ph.D. program. If accepted, all credits earned would be transferable. Funding is not ordinarily available for this degree.
M.A. candidates must complete 24 credits of coursework. They must also demonstrate reading proficiency in one foreign language and write a qualifying paper.
Course Work Requirements
Of their 24 hours of coursework, 12 hours must be distributed through a chosen area of concentration. Additionally, students must take at least one 800- or 900-level seminar.
