Our research creates knowledge about literature, poetics, writing, media, language, and cultures in the English-speaking world. Our faculty have been finalists for the Pulitzer Prize; have won Guggenheims, Fulbrights and Eisners; have earned multiple lifetime achievement awards; and have been awarded fellowships from the National Humanities Center, the Princeton Institute for Advanced Studies and the American Council of Learned Societies. Our peers rank us in the top 20% nationally of all English programs, and our experts actively share their knowledge every day.

All we’re missing is you.
