Courses in literary periods, major authors, theoretical movements, and creative writing seminars are supplemented by specialty seminars based on current faculty research interests. Such a variety of course offerings signals both our recognition of intellectual and disciplinary change and our abiding commitment to traditional literary history. Course offerings arise from faculty research interests, and because we have very few course requirements ùparticularly at the doctoral levelù our program encourages students to follow the example of an intellectually engaged faculty in designing their own programs of study. All students who wish to teach get thorough training and significant classroom experience. MA students typically teach in their second year, while doctoral candidates begin in their first year and acquire a range of diverse teaching experiences by the time they go on the job market. A faculty Job Placement Coordinator guides job candidates through the process of seeking academic employment, and most faculty encourage students to publish their scholarship and become active members of the discipline. Consequently, our students are actively engaged scholars and teachers.     Accreditation Information:   # Of Credits Required:   Time To Degree:     Previous Degrees Pre-Requisite Courses International Student Requirements Requirements Qualifying Exam: Minimum Exam Score: GPA or Equivalent: English Proficiency: Research Competency: Clinical Internship:   Work Experience Volunteer Experience Publications Experience Foreign Language Requirement Other Requirements   Cost Per Credit Hour: $   Tuition:   Financial Aid Offered:       # of Students Enrolled Full Time: 4497  # of Students Enrolled Part Time: 2414  Average GPA:   Average Test Scores:   Charge Per Credit: $871  Annual Full Time Avg Institution Tuition: $11182  Financial Aid Offered: Yes  Average Work Experience: Less than 1 Year  Specializations:   # of Terms Per Year: Semester  Placement Percentage:   Historically Black: No   Religious Affiliation: Not applicable
