Alternatively, taught master's programs offer intensive learning in small groups, direct engagement with faculty, and a shorter research component. Earning an MA enhances both your specialized knowledge and versatile skills.

For Languages and Literature postgraduate studies, you can pursue advanced work in two languages simultaneously. Available options include: Chinese, English, French, German, Greek, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Latin, Maori Studies, or Spanish. These programs focus on enhancing language proficiency, literary analysis, and linguistic exploration where applicable. Research papers or projects form a significant part of these graduate programs. Unlike Comparative Literature, this discipline mandates language acquisition and doesn't necessitate cross-language comparative analysis.
