Overview

About the English program of the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA)

A variety of field-specific research centers, colloquia, lecture series, and informal reading groups provide important adjunct experiences to the formal classroom. Graduate students are welcome at the lectures and conferences conducted by the Medieval and Renaissance Center and the Seventeenth- and Eighteenth-Century Studies Center. The Department also sponsors a monthly lecture series by distinguished theorists and scholars on the future of the discipline.

Our proximity to several important research centers– the William Andrews Clark Memorial Library, the Huntington Library, and the Getty Research Institute–offers distinct advantages to many of our graduate students. With the generous help of the Mellon Foundation, UCLA has been at the forefront of rethinking the humanities. As a result, we have expanded our department offerings in new and emerging interdisciplinary areas.

Graduate students are encouraged to work closely with their advisors throughout their studies in shaping a program responsive to their particular interests.The English Department heavily values training and supervised experience in teaching as an integral part of the preparation we offer for the profession.
