MFA Degree Requirements
The MFA requirements are as follows:
- 12 hours of workshops
- 12 hours of literature
- 6 hours of free electives
- 6 hours of thesis work
There is no foreign language requirement.
The electives may be selected both from within or without the English Department so as to support an area of interest such as linguistics and translation, historical fiction, etc. The faculty is amenable to directed readings--independent studies of a particular poet or author--for credit as well.
