MA English at St Xavier's College, Ahmedabad Offline Course

MA English is a Full-Time Two-Years Course and it is offered by Gujarat University, Ahmedabad

Studying English at St. Xavier’s College, at the Postgraduate (MA) level, combines a focus on linguistic proficiency with an attempt to nurture critical thinking and engagement with creative literary works. While language skills are a recognized necessity given the competitiveness of the national and international job market, the development of the ability to read critically and empathetically, to critique cultural artifacts and to establish rigorous and current theoretical frameworks for social and textual analysis form an integral part of humane living. The humanities in general, and literature, in particular, have the ability, through this focus, to further what has been a longterm aim as far as the College is concerned: equitable and just processes of learning, taking into account a multiplicity of positions from which this knowledge is produced.
