I can't say enough about the courses, faculty and opportunities that were available to me during my M.A. studies at FAU. The program sparked my interest in pursuing a Ph.D., made me a better applicant to Ph.D. programs, and prepared me for the rigor and challenge of Ph.D. work. Along the way, the program introduced me to fascinating literary, critical and philosophical texts that I continue to study and teach as a professor today.
~ Paul Ardoin (FAU English M.A., 2008); Associate Professor of Humanities @ University of Texas at San Antonio
Outside of offering sharp graduate seminars on contemporary topics of interest, the English department encouraged professional development by putting together roundtables on submission and publication as well as C.V. and Ph.D. application writing workshops [ . . . ] The department emphasized the importance of pedagogy, rhetoric and composition for all the graduate students, regardless of their field, and as a result, I came out of the program a more conscious and sensitive teacher of writing.
