Our MA English and American Studies postgraduate taught course prepares you for further research in the discipline while also broadening and deepening your critical engagement with English and American literature and culture.
The structure of the course is flexible, which means you can choose to combine your interests in English and American culture, or focus more exclusively on one or the other.
Our department provides a thriving environment, with our vibrant research culture, close links to the Centre for New Writing, involvement in the Manchester Literature Festival and access to the world-class John Rylands Library.
While this course offers you a range of units that are chronologically or geographically specific, all are informed by recent theoretical and historical developments that allow you to think about categories like literature, culture and history in nuanced and fresh ways.
Applicants should hold a good, Upper Second Class Honours degree, or its overseas equivalent, in a subject that provides a significant foundation in topics related to this programme as demonstrated by the applicant’s transcripts (interim or final).
