Master of Humanities - English

A rationale for an English concentration is almost self-evident.  Students have requested the concentration and many from this program have applied to adjunct positions in English only to be told that they need 18 hours or a degree or concentration in the field.

The Master of Humanities program offers a variety of English courses. The English concentration requires a core of 9 hours of ENG Survey in (American, British and World) Literature courses and 9 hours of ENG electives to meet the 18 hours of concentration requirements. *ENG 501 does not meet graduation requirements toward the MH/ENG degree.
