About the Graduate Program
The Master of Arts in English is a two-year degree that offers advanced study in literature, media, and critical theory. The degree prepares students for doctoral work in English, as well as for professions seeking people with highly developed skills in synthesis, argumentation, and analysis; reading, writing, and editing; and all forms of verbal communication. Our program is small but rigorous, embracing traditional and newly canonical works and a variety of critical perspectives. Our M.A. graduates have pursued careers in teaching, publishing, government, creative writing, public relations, learning technology, non-profit work, and library and information sciences.
The graduate catalog contains a complete description of university degree requirements and specific requirements for the English M.A. degree.
