The Department of English offers the Master of Arts with specialization in literature, creative writing, com- munity college teaching, and linguistics and the Doctor of Philosophy with specialization in literature and lin- guistics. A nonthesis option for the Master of Arts is offered with specialization in literature and community college teaching. Specific areas of specialization for the Doctor of Philosophy include linguistics, Medieval, Renaissance, Restoration and 18th-century, and 19th-century British literature, American literature to 1900, contemporary British and American literature. Specialization in the literary study of film, rhetoric, or folklore is also possible. New graduate students should have completed an undergraduate English major of at least 24 semester hours, while doctoral students should have a Master of Arts degree in English. All doctoral students must take a course in bibliography and methods of research and complete an internship in college teaching.
