About this programme
English and Cultural Studies at McMaster combines long-standing commitments to traditional areas of English literary study, ranging from Medieval and Early Modern to contemporary British, American and Canadian literature, with expertise in interdisciplinary areas and themes, such as narratives of health, environmental humanities, and Indigenous literatures and cultures. Critical race studies, theories of gender and sexuality, and theories and literatures of decolonization and resistance also form core elements of our graduate programs.
