    Certificate Programs in Literature

    Certificates are typically earned by students who fulfill a course requirement within their chosen field. These programs are available through most universities, though the course length depends on the subject and the workload per semester.

    What is a certificate in literature? These programs are designed for writers and scholars who are interested in furthering their knowledge within a specific literary arena. Students will often choose their area of interest, such as Renaissance literature or works by authors from a certain region. These certificates may cover basic literature written in any number of languages, and graduates can direct their studies to a single author or even a single work. In addition to reading and discussion, courses often contain a substantial writing component.

    Any scholar interested in literature can benefit from this coursework. Many graduates use this certificate to help pursue higher education, while others find literary studies very helpful in supplementing their existing knowledge.

    Certificates in literature can cover a multitude of subjects and therefore vary widely in cost. If you have specific pricing questions, reach out to a university admissions office directly.

Extensive reading within one field of literature can open doors to working either as a teacher or researcher at various academic institutions. There are also positions within the corporate world for those interested in translating their passion for reading and writing into marketing, copywriting and editing.
