MA 2nd year

As a discipline principale student, you will be required to write a mémoire de Maîtrise (MA dissertation). This will be examined in a public discussion de mémoire (viva). The mémoire completes the 90-credit maîtrise universitaire ès Lettres in English.

Please note that teachers will be mostly unavailable for mémoire supervision during the vacation summer months (July and August); make sure you discuss this with your supervisor and plan your writing accordingly.

If you choose to do the 120-credit Maîtrise universitaire ès Lettres avec spécialisation, you will earn 30 additional credits by enrolling in one of the programmes de spécialisation offered in the Faculty.

See the list of programmes de spécialisation offered on the Faculty of Arts page.
