Summary

The MPhil/PhD English offers you the opportunity to undertake an intensive study of an aspect of literature in English, and to make an original contribution to scholarly understandings of your chosen subject area.

The MA by Research in English is designed for students who are keen to undertake an in-depth research project of their choice in an aspect of literature in English, with the guidance of an expert academic supervisor.

While the emphasis is on your independent research, you will receive guidance from your team of academic supervisors who have expertise related to your topic. The English staff team at Lincoln can supervise a wide range of subjects, with particular strengths in Romantic and Victorian literature, medieval, early modern, contemporary, Gothic, women's writing, American literature, and ecocriticism. Before you apply, we encourage you to consult the list of our staff's academic interests, to ensure the subject you are interested in can receive expert guidance.

As an MPhil/PhD student, you are encouraged to participate in the School of Humanties and Heritage's lively research culture of research seminars (including the English Research Seminar), as well as postgraduate forums, social events, and training to support the development of your academic skills. Our interdisciplinary culture fosters connections between English and areas including cultural and social history, art history, drama, film and media, and the creative arts.
