MA American Studies is an interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary course, which enables you to focus on the study of the history, literature, politics, film and culture of the United States, as well as the literature, culture and society of Canada.

A suite of core modules taken by all MA students is the centrepiece of the degree. Offered in the first semester is Approaches to American Studies, which will acquaint students with the development of scholarly methods, theories, and approaches in American Studies.

Offered in the second semester is Researching Contemporary America, which will introduce postgraduate-level American Studies through a study of key controversies in the study of the recent United States.
