Overview

Students who have earned M.A. degrees in our English program at Tulane University have gone on to doctoral programs and law schools. They have embarked on careers as journalists as well as editors at magazines and publishing houses.

Several of our graduates now teach in public and private secondary schools. We have graduates who work on staff as museum curators and in rare book libraries. But some of our graduates go on to careers not directly related to the degree.

They chose to pursue the M.A. in order to challenge themselves, to continue the study of literature they enjoy, and to acquire a credential that adds value to their employment profile.
