Comparative Studies in English and American Language, Literature and Culture

Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf

Graduate Winter Semester

Our MA Comparative is a unique, interdisciplinary program and is one of the broadest in the country giving you the chance to choose from and combine subjects from the fields of Medieval English Studies, American Studies, Linguistics, Modern English Literature, Anglophone Literatures and Comparative Literature. You have the possibility to combine all fields of English studies or specialize in one. Fully taught in English, the four-semester Master program starts once a year in the winter term (October).


The Master's program Comparative Studies in English and American Language, Literature and Culture (MAComp) is a unique, interdisciplinary program aimed at providing graduate students with a professionally qualified education within the fields of English and American studies, literary and cultural studies and linguistics. It allows them to hone their academic as well as professional skills on an intercultural level, paving them the way into domestic and international job markets for both academic and non-academic careers.

In approaching literature and linguistics comparatively, students will engage with cultural phenomena within the changing contexts of history and globalization. Taking into consideration theories on such socio-cultural variables as class, gender, ethnicity, technology, or media, the MAComp curriculum relates to current research and also includes areas of studies beyond the philologies.
