文学研究 MA Literary Studies

The MA in Literary Studies at the National University of Singapore offers students a fully taught programme on a unit system. By taking taught courses, students develop advanced knowledge and critical skills in contemporary literary studies. Students take ten dedicated MA-level courses comprising three foundational courses and seven chosen from a range of more specialised electives, which may include an Independent Study where they conceive their own short research essay in consultation with a faculty supervisor. The programme provides rigorous training in close critical and historically contextualized analysis of literature, equipping students with the intellectual tools necessary for research, cultural leadership, and professional roles in a wide range of sectors.
