Ringkasan program

This concentration teaches students how literature works and how it makes its meaning in a complex world. Students learn to read analytically, write critically, and speak conceptually about literary works. They explore the dynamic interaction of literary forms with history, science, politics, and social change, developing responses that are both unique and valid. Because of its cultural depth and the emphasis on analytical reading and writing skills, literature is considered excellent preparation for career advancement and professional studies such as business administration, law, and the social services, as well as for further study in humanities fields.
