MA-ENGL - English Major (M.A.)

Trinity’s master of arts in English develops writing and critical thinking skills through the intense study of literature, history, theory, and methodological approaches. The aim of this two-year, 10-credit program, which culminates a thesis project, is to train students to write and think clearly with a sense of style and imaginative subtlety. Students will read broadly, practice thoughtful interpretation, produce precise arguments, gain an appreciation of texts written in English, and develop a deep understanding of historical periods, theoretical paradigms, and methodological approaches.
