Literature Track

Our program has a very strong literature track, which not only provides students with a solid foundation in the major periods and genres of British and American Literature but also a variety of options that they can choose to supplement this foundation. Students can enrich their study of English with a wide variety of literatures in English, from Old English literature to 21st-century authors. We also regularly offer courses in Literature of American Minorities, Postcolonial literature, Modern Drama, Modern British Literature, Romanticism, the Renaissance, and the Medieval Period. Moreover, the Literature Track also has a strong writing component, so that students who specialize on the Literature track are trained to be skilled writers as well. Our majors who have graduated from this track have gone on to be lawyers, film-makers, and journalists, in addition to teachers and professors.
