Course Outline
Objectives
The MA English program opens a whole new world of ideas and thoughts for students. Since its inception the Department has adopted the policy of making students responsible for their learning through promoting interactive reading of prescribed critical texts. Coming from backgrounds that do not encourage reading, this is not an easy task as they have never learned to interact with texts. By the end of the program their capacity for reading, critical thinking and evaluation is built up – an experience invariably cherished and valued.
 
Career Opportunities
The goal is to make students understand, analyse and use their knowledge of the English language as professionals in practical life. It prepares them to take up diverse jobs in the market which require a good knowledge of English. As the program builds students’ capacity for reading, critical thinking and evaluation, careers in diverse fields ranging from advertising, journalists’ writing, creative art, film and drama, activity to research, management and legal studies are opened up.
