Job Placement
Graduates of the English Department have consistently obtained excellent positions in literature departments, both nationally and internationally. Under the supervision of the Director of Graduate Studies and with the active participation of many faculty members, the English Department assists and advises graduate students during their job searches through regular placement meetings and workshops, a handbook containing guidelines for the job search, individual help with the preparation of job materials, and mock job interviews.
