Consider English @ K-State
K-State’s Department of English provides students with a carefully structured but individualized program that encourages creativity, promotes innovative scholarship, and fosters close working relationships between students and faculty.
With approximately 60 master’s candidates and 30 graduate faculty members, the Department offers individualized attention and small class sizes. Faculty are leaders in their respective fields, collectively publishing in the past five years more than two dozen books as well as articles, reviews, poems, essays and stories in more than 100 journals and anthologies. Graduate students come from a variety of backgrounds, including undergraduate programs in English or other disciplines. While some have recently completed their undergraduate work, many are returning students hoping to energize their craft, switch careers, or pursue unmet dreams. Some of our students grew up and attended college in the Midwest; others have come from across the country or across the ocean to study at K-State. Likewise, what our graduates do when they leave K-State varies. Some go on to pursue advanced degrees in a variety of disciplines, including law, literature, linguistics, cultural studies and composition. Others enter professions including technical and professional writing, community and social services, arts administration, public school teaching, community college teaching, publishing and editing, or journalism and business.
