MA Concentration in Medieval Studies

The M.A. Concentration in Medieval Studies is designed for students who wish to pursue an interdisciplinary Master's degree in medieval English literature. The course of study offers a multi-cultural and interdisciplinary foundation for the study of the Middle Ages, and hence would appeal to students who wish to continue their studies in the medieval period above the B.A. level.
