The MA program takes two years to complete and involves course work and a thesis.
Students normally do the equivalent of four half courses in the first year and two in the second.
Each year, in addition to the required courses, the Centre offers at least four half-courses. There are graduate courses in a number of existing departments that are concerned with theory and criticism. Each student is required to write an MA thesis. The thesis should be between 20,000 and 30,000 words, excluding bibliography and non-substantive appendices. Please note that an individual faculty member is not allowed to be chief supervisor for more then two centre students from any given year.
