    While maintaining a strong emphasis in British and American literary traditions as well as established forms of literary scholarship, the program is committed to the teaching of multicultural literatures written in English and to encouraging the pursuit of a broad range of theoretical, historical and interdisciplinary concerns. Our rigorous, but flexible, curriculum is supported by a dedicated and innovative faculty actively involved in research, course development, and programs of study organized by students' individual interests and objectives. | more |
