| Description | What does it mean to go public? To publish? More than reading texts, students in Trent's Public Texts M.A. program develop new ways of examining how texts are produced and circulated. Here you can explore the ongoing relationship between texts and the public.
Students also discover the history of texts, study the future of published works and discuss relevant issues that are key to modern literary research. Collaboration with faculty, visiting scholars and experts is front and centre in this innovative program that combines theory and practice.
In this program, graduates develop professional skills suitable to fields such as publishing, editing, communications, journalism, or archival work. Whether your interests are academic or applied, you can follow them in one of four program streams ranging from 12 months to two years.
Structure your studies to include a major research paper, a thesis, research-creation project, or a sought-after internship option. Students may also pursue future studies at the Ph.D. level in English literature and connected areas such as print culture or the history of the book. | | |
