Our program accommodates part-time and full-time students, with seminars that meet weekly in the late afternoon or evenings to enable students with work or family responsibilities to attend.

Literary Studies - Creative

Our unique MA program offers you the opportunity to study literature and creative writing. Students with the creative specialization take graduate-level workshops with professional writers in multiple genres, enabling you to develop multi-genre fluency within your own work and to build pedagogical skills and credentials in the creative writing classroom. In graduate-level creative writing workshops, you will receive feedback on your work addresses elements of craft and technique. You will also read broadly in the “state of the art” and engage in conversations about aesthetic and historical contexts, narrative theory, poetics, and critical theory. If you receive a funded Graduate Teaching Assistantship, you will establish and build your pedagogical skills by teaching a wide range of courses. You also leave the program with a completed book-length creative project in hand, as well as guidance on job and graduate program applications and C.V. building.
