The MA provides diverse options to suit your needs. You can choose between research-based or taught programs, with durations of one year or 18 months based on your qualifications, across over 40 academic disciplines. Your prior education might allow you to explore a field distinct from your previous specialization. A research master's program lets you make meaningful contributions to your chosen discipline through an extensive research project guided by New Zealand's top academics. Alternatively, a taught master's offers intensive learning in intimate classroom settings with direct faculty engagement, alongside a more compact research component. English postgraduate studies enable you to follow your passions through specialized coursework, enhance your methodological expertise, and conduct focused research in areas like literary analysis, theatrical studies, cultural theory, or both analytical and imaginative writing. This includes examining connections between literature, visual arts, and various critical and creative approaches.
