Introduction

The English program offers the study of literary traditions in English across a range of historical, cultural, and theoretical contexts. Students engage with literary texts while developing skills in critical reading, analytical writing, and research.

The Department of English offers courses in British, Canadian, and American literature; Indigenous literatures of North America; postcolonial, transnational, and diasporic literatures of Africa, the Caribbean, and South Asia; and literary theory and criticism. Courses are organized in four levels, from introductory surveys to advanced seminars emphasizing independent research and creative practice.

The Department of English offers a range of undergraduate programs supporting both literary study and creative practice. Students may enrol in a Specialist, Major, or Minor in English, as well as programs in Creative Writing at the Major and Minor levels. The English Specialist offers sustained, intensive engagement with literary study. The Major in English is organized in two streams: Literature and Language, which provides a strong foundation in literary analysis alongside flexibility for other academic interests, and Creative Writing, which integrates creative practice with advanced literary study. The English Minor is designed as a flexible, curiosity driven program that allows students to sample broadly across literary traditions and topics without the structured requirements of the Specialist and Major. The Minor in Creative Writing provides structured, practice based training in literary genres, strategies, and techniques.

The Department of English publishes detailed course descriptions online, usually in mid May. Students are urged to consult these course descriptions at www.english.utoronto.ca before enrolment begins.

Students with questions about the English Undergraduate Programs should consult the Undergraduate Office.
