Later
British and
Anglophone Studies
In
the
Department of English
at the University
of Oklahoma
the
graduate
concentration in Later British and
Anglophone Studies is one of the
most
popular areas of study, with an excellent
record in recent years in
placing its
Ph.D.s in tenure-track positions.
Many of the faculty who teach
in this
concentration also have interests in
theory and gender studies, as well
as in
fields such as science, art, music, film,
and history, and so courses
are
conceived and taught from a wide variety
of perspectives.
Graduate
students work
closely with faculty to develop their own
scholarly and pedagogical
skills and
projects. Students present their work at
regional and national
conferences, and
faculty assist them in seeking publication
in major journals. The
English
Department and the Graduate College
provide
competitive funding sources for conference
travel and dissertation
research. Recent graduates hold
assistant or associate professor
positions at institutions such as Denison College, Elmira College,
the University
of Nebraska-Kearney,
and
King’s
College (Pennsylvania).
In
addition to period courses in eighteenth-,
nineteenth-, and
twentieth-century
literatures in English, including South
Asian, Caribbean, African, and
African
diaspora literature and culture, offerings
in this area include more
specialized courses such as “Transatlantic
Genres” and “Global Fiction.”
