Overview
Our faculty is made up of scholars whose research and teaching interests focus on a range of approaches to textual analysis such as critical race theory, deconstruction, feminism and gender studies, new historicism, postcolonial studies, psychoanalysis, and queer theory.
We offer seminars in British, American, and Anglophone literatures. Furthermore, the program presents students with numerous opportunities to develop their own research projects, including the MA Thesis, based on their unique interests.
Career Opportunities
- Our Literary and Textual Studies Master Program at Bowling Green State University makes possible a wide range of career paths. The majority of our students receive funding through assistantships involving teaching in BGSU’s General Studies Writing program, research, department service, or tutoring.
- By becoming actively involved in the department in these ways, taking courses, and composing a thesis, our program prepares students for advanced graduate work in numerous fields of study in the humanities, but also for careers outside of the academy.
- Recent graduates have gone on to excellent PhD programs or to work in publishing, research and analysis, computer storyboarding, as well as K-12 and higher education as teachers, administrators, and support personnel.
