Master of Arts (Comparative Canadian Literature)

The Master of Arts in Comparative Canadian Literature (litterature canadienne comparee) at Universite de Moncton examines points of comparison and intercultural contact between English-Canadian and French-Canadian literary traditions. The program is completed over a minimum of two years of full-time study and totals 42 credits, combining graduate coursework with a research component in comparative literature. Students engage with texts and criticism from both of Canada's official-language literary traditions, developing comparative analytical skills applicable to bilingual and intercultural literary study. The program is delivered on the Moncton campus and is intended for students with a background in English or French-Canadian literature who wish to pursue graduate-level comparative research, preparing them for further doctoral study or careers requiring advanced bilingual literary and cultural analysis.
