Master of Arts in English Literature with Professional Placement

Program Overview

How does literature challenge assumptions of what it means to be human? How have writers engaged with the fault lines that define our social lives? And how might literary imaginations become allied to political projects, including campaigns for social justice?

This course will give you the tools to grapple with these urgent questions. You will be taught by published experts who will introduce you to innovative critical approaches through which you will read diverse and sometimes challenging literary material. You will learn advanced library and archival research methods and sharpen your communication and critical thinking skills through the course's varied assessment regime.

Optional modules enable you to examine literature from different genres and historical periods from the Middle Ages to the present, and to tackle topics such as literature's relationship with sexuality and gender, with race and empire, and with trauma. Through a 15,000-word dissertation, you will research a subject of your choice, with support and supervision from a specialist member of staff.
