The MA in English & Writing Studies is firmly grounded in theory and research, with a strong emphasis on pedagogy. The internship component gives students practical experience in the classroom or a professional writing site. Students also have opportunities to tutor in the Writing Center and to work as teaching assistants. In addition to teaching in local high schools and community colleges, our graduates also go on to Ph.D. and M.F.A. programs as well as careers involving writing, editing, and research.<br>This concentration focuses on writing--how written texts work rhetorically and stylistically, how historical and social conditions affect what we write, how we construct meaning as we read, and how to teach people to write effectively.
