Doctor of Philosophy in English- Creative Writing
關於課程
We offer a B.A. in English, with a Creative Writing concentration, an M.A. in English, with a creative thesis, and a Ph.D. in English, with a creative dissertation. Our unique position within a dynamic English Department allows graduate students to take a two-year core creative writing curriculum, alongside courses in literary studies, cultural studies, indigenous studies, life writing, oral traditions, and composition.
Our core creative writing curriculum offers a productive mix of workshops, seminars, and craft courses. Graduate students will develop an understanding of literary movements, genres, theories, forms, and techniques, while also cultivating editorial and revision skills. Throughout, students will even have opportunities to hone their performance style, professional development, and creative writing pedagogy.
Our widely published and critically acclaimed creative writing faculty represent an impressive range of academic, aesthetic, cultural, and geographical backgrounds. Our faculty members are passionate teachers, and several are even committed to important social, environmental, and political movements in Hawai’i and the Pacific. Faculty interests include: poetry, fiction, creative nonfiction, and songwriting, literatures of Hawaiʻi, the Pacific, Asia, the United States, India, and Europe, multicultural, postmodern, multilingual, postcolonial, indigenous, and Pacific literary theories.
Every Spring semester, we sponsor a Distinguished Visiting Writer in Residence. This appointment brings an accomplished writer to our campus for an entire semester to teach two creative writing/literature courses, to perform at a public reading, to conduct a professional development workshop, and to become involved in our literary community.
