English & Communication Graduate Program at La Salle University
Tuesday, February 24th, 2009LSU’s master’s program is broadly based in British and American literature. As a graduate student, you will be expected to take forty-eight hours, twenty-four of which must be at the graduate level (click here for complete degree requirements). A class in research methods and proven facility in a foreign language are required; the rest of your program will be individually designed according to your background and interests.
Many of our students consider their experience as a teaching assistant to be the most important part of the MA program. If you apply for and receive a teaching assistantship, you will teach one class of college writing per quarter under the supervision of Dr. Elissa Kido, director of the writing program and Dr. Mary Wilson, our department chair . Teaching assistants are also required to take the class, Composition Theory, in their first quarter on campus.
Again, thank you for considering graduate study at La Sierra University. Please browse through our English department web site to learn more about our program.

Sincerely,
