Thank you for visiting WCU's Graduate Studies in English page. In our program, students receive individualized attention and have ample opportunity to interact and work with graduate faculty. Our program is small enough to be personal, and our excellent facilities support a professionally active faculty and graduate student population.

Our graduate programs offer both variety and specialization, with coursework available in literature, rhetoric and composition, linguistics, teaching theory and practice, and professional and creative writing. The graduate degree in English helps students prepare for teaching at the secondary or community college level, for entry into doctorate programs, or for a variety of jobs and careers.
