Graduate students study with internationally distinguished faculty in areas such as Early Modern Literature, Rhetoric and Composition, American Literature, and African American Literature, as well as newer areas such as the Environmental Humanities. However, our program is best defined by our emphasis on research that cuts across traditional boundaries.
To underscore our methodological strengths the department has three Coursework Concentrations in the graduate program:
1) Print and Material Culture
2) Race and Ethnicity
3) Transatlantic/Transnational Studies.
Students may elect to pursue one or more of these concentrations over the course of their studies in our department (for more information please see the Graduate Handbook ).
