About Master of Science - English
As a student in the Master of Science (M.S.) in English, students will be a part of a graduate program defined by small, in-person seminars, one-on-one mentorship with publishing faculty, and a serious commitment to literature, ideas, and conversation. The Master of Science (M.S.) is particularly appropriate for those who want to combine advanced training literary studies with courses in a related field – e.g., education, psychology, Women’s Studies, etc.

- Learn advanced approaches to English research and contemporary theory through Southern Connecticut State University introductory seminars
- Take a wide-range of courses in American, British, and global literature, including the origins of English language and literature
- Have the option to specialize in African-American literature
- Be eligible to teach students own college-level class through one of Southern Connecticut State University Graduate Teaching Assistantship
- Have access to funding to present students creative or scholarly work at academic conferences
- Show the expertise students gained from their coursework or independent research through one of two final capstones: the Master's Comprehensive Exam or Master's Thesis
- Discover professional opportunities through a graduate internship or apprenticeship in one of New Haven’s arts, humanities, or educational organizations (e.g., research libraries, grant-writing, etc.)
