The Master of Arts in English Literature and Creative Writing at the University of Windsor develops students' critical thinking and writing skills across two streams: Literature and Language, offered as either a Coursework or Thesis option, and Literature and Creative Writing. The program combines graduate seminars with either a thesis project or a creative writing portfolio, depending on the stream chosen at application. Applicants submit a writing sample and a statement of purpose alongside a program-specific supplementary admissions form. Admission is for the Fall term, and the program is administered by the Department of English and Creative Writing. Graduates pursue further graduate study, academic careers, or work in writing, editing, and related fields.
