English PhD students can focus on conventional literary-historical disciplines or craft a curriculum highlighting cultural studies or cross-disciplinary fields like American studies, film studies, digital humanities, race and ethnic studies, gender and sexuality studies, or religious studies. The English Department forms a collective of readers and writers committed to analytical and inventive perspectives on our multifaceted world. We are narrative explorers, language enthusiasts, and researchers of the diverse realms captured and envisioned through literature.
