Department of English Language and Literature

The Graduate Programs in English are designed to prepare students for doctoral level studies at another university, to meet the general needs of students teaching at the elementary and secondary levels who wish to upgrade their capabilities, to prepare students for careers in teaching English as a second language and to prepare students who aspire to teach at the Community College level.

Graduate classes are small and provide the student with ample opportunity for interaction with professors and other graduate students. Graduate-level classes are offered in the late afternoons and evenings.
