Basic modules stress the survey aspect of training, while advanced modules focus on in-depth analysis. This study option is suited for anyone who wishes to broaden their knowledge in various fields relating to the subject before deciding which field to choose for an MA thesis. For the Joint Honours MA in English: Language, Literatures and Cultures, students have to choose at least one other subject. This can be closely related (e.g. North American Studies) or completely unrelated (e.g. Law or German History); any combination is acceptable, provided that the subject is offered as a 36-credit module package at the University of GÃ¶ttingen. In their course of study, students can choose between four study varieties: across the disciplines with a focus on either literary or language studies with a focus on Anglophone literature and culture with a focus on English language theory and history Obligatory modules include advanced courses on English language and on culture and institutions of the UK or the USA. Elective modules depend on the kind of specialisation students wish to acquire. In studying across the disciplines, students can choose between basic and advanced modules in English and postcolonial literature and culture, North American literature and culture, modern English linguistics, and the history of English. Students whose interests lie in either English / North American literature or in language studies can opt for a large variety of modules on offer in the respective disciplines. The Department of English also offers three module packages (minor subjects) to be taken in combination with a 42-credit (Joint Honours) MA programme: English: Language, Literatures and Cultures, which meets the same criteria as outlined above Anglophone Literature and Culture Linguistics and Medieval Studies (Language in Focus) Other English-language MA programmes at the university include North American Studies and Modern Indian Studies.
