Academic excellence
Comparative Literature and Cultural Studies is the leading centre of critical inquiry in Australia, and has been home to several major international figures during its history.
Our people are highly regarded thinkers in their various fields of speciality. Many have significant international profiles. We are host to several leading cultural commentators and theorists, and a large PhD program.
International opportunities
The School of English, Communications and Performance Studies has numerous formal and informal alliances with peer institutions across the developed and developing world. Comparative Literature and Cultural Studies adds significantly to the School’s internationalist flavour, with robust and growing relationships and partnerships in global academia.
There are opportunities for student exchanges and internships, for international scholarships and study trips.
Students wishing to explore opportunities abroad are supported and encouraged.
Teaching environment
We pride ourselves on the environment we’ve created. In feedback surveys our students refer to the quality of teaching, to the welcoming and non-threatening atmosphere, to creative and stimulating learning techniques, to the ample opportunities they’re afforded get to know their fellow students, and most of all, to the mind-expanding elements of this area of study.
Our teaching program is part of a broader literary community at the School of English, Communications and Performance Studies. It benefits greatly from the contributions of related disciplines, as well as from the cutting edge research enquiry of the Comparative Literature and Cultural Studies (CLCS) research unit.
