Speciality Areas of Focus or Concentrations
Within the broadly generalist MA frame, and in consultation with a departmental advisor, some students may choose a specific informal area of concentration, or focus. We offer the following as examples of areas of concentration pursued by students in our program. Note that these areas are overlapping and are not intended to suggest exclusivity of emphasis, and note too that not all these content areas (and their related courses) may be offered or available during a student’s period of Masters enrollment.
