The Master of Arts in Texts, Technologies, and Literature enables advanced students to deepen their knowledge of literary works and diverse text forms, spanning digital content, scholarly writings, and everyday communications, all examined through historical and modern cultural lenses. This program attracts graduates from disciplines like American Studies, Media Studies, Communication Studies, Modern Languages and Literature, and Gender and Women's Studies, alongside English majors. It caters to diverse aspirations, supporting those pursuing academic careers in English fields (such as Rhetoric and Composition, Communication and Media Studies, or Literature), doctoral candidates (potentially in UMBC's Language, Literacy, and Culture program or Morgan State's English Ph.D.), K-12 educators seeking professional development, and professionals entering communication, publishing, or digital media industries.

Qualification Requirements
The Graduate School recommends applicants have at least a 3.0 GPA or B average when applying.
For transcripts from schools abroad, the UMBC Graduate School will accept official WES (World Education Services) ICAP Course-by-Course evaluations but note that these evaluations are not required.
Students who are unable to meet the minimum GPA standards may still be admitted to graduate study by demonstrating outstanding performance on one or more of the graduate aptitude tests or by providing letters of recommendation from evaluators who can speak to the applicant's performance as a student or in a professional capacity.
