In English (Public Texts) at Trent University, students will have the freedom to choose their area of focus and the stream that suits their goals.

In as little as one year, students will earn a Master’s degree in English (Public Texts) while exploring a variety of career tracks in communications, digital or print editing, information science, publishing, teaching, or scholarship.

At Trent University, students will find freedom and flexibility as they develop new ways of looking at the written word and the implications of “going public.” Whether their interests are academic or applied, they can follow them in one of four fully-funded streams ranging from 12 months to two years. Students can structure studies to include a major research paper, a thesis, research-creation project, or a sought-after internship option.
