Our graduate programs favor a contextualized and integrated approach to the research of language and cultural production. Texts are studied as components in a broad network of interrelated artistic, political, and economic practices and institutions. The learning process is structured in such a way as to combine language, culture and theory both at the level of individual courses and in the graduate curriculum as a whole.

We currently have a large and diverse group of graduate students from the USA, Africa, Europe, the Caribbean and Latin America working together in a collegial environment. Students complete the requirements for the M.A. in 2 years and the requirements for the Ph.D. in 4-5 years.

Our graduate students go on to productive careers. See where our alumni are now: M.A. Alumni Ph.D. Alumni

ATHENS, GEORGIA

Athens is, without a doubt, one of the most vibrant college towns in the U.S., and a relatively inexpensive place to live. The town is perhaps best known for its music scene, having produced world-famous groups such as REM and the B-52s.
