MA in Philosophy and Literature, University of East Anglia, Norwich

The MA in Philosophy and Literature offers interdisciplinary study of the two subjects, and explores at many levels the deep links between them. The course is an ideal supplement to an undergraduate degree in either philosophy or literature, and an excellent preparation for advanced research work in either field. Students can choose from a wide range of modules in both subjects, while sharing a research workshop and core units jointly taught by philosophers and literary specialists. This makes the MA a genuinely joint degree, and not one where the two subjects are only taught in parallel.

UEA has a thriving community of about 30 postgraduate students in Philosophy, and 80-90 in the Literature and Creative Writing. The atmosphere in both schools is friendly, rigorous and supportive, and the staff-student relationship is excellent. Several eminent specialists working in the area make Philosophy and Literature a major focus of research at UEA.

The MA can be taken either as a one year full-time course, or a two year part-time course.

Full details of all module options etc will appear on UEA’s website in January 2010. In the meantime, please contact Dr. Mark Rowe (mark.rowe (a )uea.ac.uk) for further information.
