Key facts

Florida Atlantic University's M.A. in English prepares students for doctoral study and careers outside academia including editing, publishing, technical writing and other fields that value skilled writing, research and critical thinking skills.

The English M.A. is a two-year program that concludes with the completion of a 40-60 page thesis or a comprehensive exam. The program requires 24 credit hours of graduate course work plus six thesis or exam credits for a total of 30 credits. In the course of their graduate program, graduate students must complete two core courses: Principles and Problems of Literary Study (ENG 6009) which serves as an introduction to graduate study and disciplinary research and Literary Criticism I or II (ENG 5018, 5019). In addition to the these required courses, students may choose one of the following areas of concentration for their studies: Rhetoric and Composition, or Science Fiction and Fantasy. M.A. students must fulfill (or test out of) a foreign language requirement (two semesters of intermediate level or a reading for research course) or enroll in History of the English Language (LIN 6107) to fulfill this requirement.
