Overview

The MA English course at University of Wolverhampton features core modules in both advanced critical theory and research methodologies that will enhance your abilities in academic research, writing, and presentation, enabling you to meet the standards demanded by employers throughout your professional life.

What happens on the course?

Learning and teaching takes place through lectures and mini-lectures, seminars, seminar presentations, and research exercises. Coursework is assessed primarily by essay, although this can take various forms (for example, research proposal; book review; or editorial project introduction). Typically, classes meet in the evenings from 6-8 p.m.

Modules in research methods and advanced critical theory provide foundations for the dissertation, the culmination of the course. For the dissertation, you will choose a substantially original research topic and be supervised by a specialist tutor in that area.
