Research this field and level

Official classification: English Language and Literature, General.

A general program that focuses on the English language, including its history, structure and related communications skills; and the literature and culture of English-speaking peoples.

Check language, literature and research requirements in the actual English degree. A field label does not establish English-language admission requirements or that an unrelated course is taught in English.

Check the required prior qualification, subject preparation and any research or professional focus. A historical master award does not establish entry eligibility, duration, delivery mode or current openings.
