The UNT English graduate program is designed for students who wish to build a professional career as creative writers, educators, or academics. With distinguished scholars in every major period of American and British literature and nationally renowned writers in every genre, the English Department supports a broad range of graduate research and creative work. In a 2020 report by Diverse: Issues in Higher Education, the UNT English Department ranked #10 out of all R1institutions in doctoral degrees earned by minority students, and #19 in the number of Latinx PhD graduates. Our students appreciate the advantages offered by a dynamic department that is growing in size, strengthening its faculty, building its resources, and raising its national and international profile. They also enjoy being part of a warm and supportive community of fellow writers and scholars. As one 2018 graduate of the PhD in English with a Concentration in Creative Writing puts it, "I had so many great experiences at UNT and will be forever thankful for its nurturing environment, which made me a better writer and colleague."

The UNT English graduate program currently offers four degrees:

Ph.D in English
