The programme aims to occupy an important space in the current landscape of higher education in India. It will provide a unique intellectual experience for students while carving out a much-needed path to higher studies both abroad and within India.
The MA in English is committed to thinking across boundaries of genre, culture and chronology. Our coursework allows for exposure to a wide array of texts, theories and disciplinary formations from around the world. MA students will also have the opportunity to pursue courses in other departments at Ashoka thus bringing new lenses to bear on literary studies. Above all, students will pursue their study of literature in relation to the larger world they live in and ask pertinent questions of it.
