There are four current concentrations offered by the English Department at the graduate level for prospective students.
- Literature and Cultural Theory (Plan A)
- Rhetoric, Professional Writing, and Community Engagement (Plan B)
- Creative Writing (Plan C)
- Media, Cinema, and Digital Studies (Plan H)
The concentrations delineate a student’s broad field of study and contain many areas of interest within them. Although students apply to and are admitted by one of the four plans, students are encouraged to take classes in a variety of areas, and there is considerable flexibility and interaction across plans.
