| Description: | The Department of English provides graduate training in literary studies towards M.A. and Ph.D. degrees. Nearly thirty faculty supervise graduate work in a variety of areas: American, Canadian, Decolonizing, Aboriginal, Literature by Women, Theory, Medieval, Renaissance, Restoration/Eighteenth Century, Nineteenth Century, Modern British, and , and Cultural and Media Studies. The Ph.D. program requires students to do course work, fulfill a language requirement, pass a Field Exam, and to propose, complete and be examined on, a dissertation. The M.A. program is normally one to two years' work, and the Ph.D. takes a minimum of four. On average we offer 8-10 one-term graduate seminars and 2-3 two-term graduate seminars each year. |
