MA Dickens Studies

Saturday 20th May: Open Morning at the Charles Dickens Museum (48 Doughty Street London), 11am to 1pm.  This is an opportunity to talk to academic staff from The University of Buckingham's MA by Research in Charles Dickens Studies about research ideas and the nature and structure of the course, which commences in October 2017, based at 51 Gower Street, Bloomsbury. The course offers access to the Charles Dickens Museum's unique archive collections as well as the expertise of the Buckingham English Department and numerous guest seminar speakers from the Dickens community worldwide. Under close guidance, successful applicants will write a substantial research-based thesis based on a topic of their choosing, under the broad umbrella of 'Dickens Studies'. More details are available here.
