The Experience

Undergraduates: We believe that the best way to develop crucial analytical skills is by exchanging and testing ideas in workshop settings and small-group discussions led by experienced and dedicated teachers.

Graduates: In the Public Texts M.A. program at Trent University, we explore what it means to “go public” – to “publish” – and how that act resonates in the political, economic, and aesthetic spheres.

The Experience
