Drama, poetry, novels, short stories and critical theory all form the basis of literary study. You can examine texts from a variety of national literatures, as well as exploring cultural studies, one of the fastest growing areas of intellectual inquiry and research in the Humanities. Cultural studies examines the vital role played by popular culture in the construction and circulation of our social realities. The Department of English and Cultural Studies also offers courses in creative writing and hosts a professional writer-in-residence, with whom students and community members are encouraged to discuss their current creative works and manuscripts.
