Signum University offers two programs: the Master’s Degree in Language and Literature and the Graduate Diploma.
M.A. in Language and Literature
The Master’s Degree in Language and Literature combines two often separated disciplines into one unique and rigorous program of study, enabling students to explore how the development of language and literature inform one another.
Graduate Diploma
Signum’s Graduate Diploma Program is ideal for those who love to learn, but don’t need a master’s degree. Students in our diploma program take the same courses as students in our M.A. in Language and Literature. The graduate diploma only requires 15 credit hours, and there is no thesis requirement.
