English Graduate Studies at Arizona State University
- Welcome to Graduate Studies in

beautiful Tempe, Arizona. Positioned
near the South Mountains that form the southern rim of the Valley of
the Sun, ASU offers spectacular physical landscapes, year-round temperate
climates, diverse ethnic and cultural environments, state-of-the-art
research facilities, and strong academic programs and faculty.
The Department of English,
housed in the College of Liberal
Arts and Sciences, has created a diverse and energetic intellectual
atmosphere within which to pursue graduate studies and boasts one of
the largest, most productive faculties in the western United States.
Approximately 250 graduate
students are enrolled each semester. One third of these students
hold teaching assistantships. A variety of interesting graduate
courses are offered each semester. The program awards excellence
by offering outstanding financial packages, including travel funds
for professional development. Graduate students in the English Department

Class sizes are small, giving students the opportunity to work closely

workshops and other events help bring students and faculty together.
