Learning Outcomes

The purpose of the coterminal master's program is to further develop knowledge and skills in interdisciplinary literary studies and to prepare students for a professional career or doctoral studies. This is achieved through completing courses in the primary field and related areas, and experience with independent work and specialization.

The MA is conferred upon candidates with a demonstrated ability to conduct graduate-level research and analysis in interdisciplinary literary studies. Through advanced coursework and rigorous skills training, the coterminal master's program prepares students to contribute to the knowledge of interdisciplinary literary studies and interpret and present the results of such research.
