This 36-unit program, which involves completing a creative thesis, allows you to balance academic coursework in English with the serious study of creative writing.
For this program, take:
12 units of 500- and 600-level creative writing courses
12 units in literature, literary criticism, and/or literary theory
3 units of graduate composition, language/linguistics, or rhetoric
3-6 units of electives chosen with your adviser's approval
3-6 units of ENG 699, for the research, writing, and revision of an approved thesis
(Please note that you may end up taking more than the 6 units of thesis credit you can count toward your degree because you must register for ENG 699 each semester while you are working on your thesis.)
