Associate of Arts, DTA - Literature Specialization

The Literature Specialization of the Associate of Arts (DTA) degree provides a solid introduction to the concepts, terminology, interpretation and analysis of literature. This specialization prepares students for successful transfer at the junior level in English, American Studies, or Literature at Washington state four-year universities.

TCC’s Literature Specialization includes a rich variety of exciting courses ranging from ancient to postmodern literature and from the traditional to the experimental or avant-garde. Students work closely with accomplished faculty who are published poets, novelists, and nonfiction writers, and collaborate on our student publications Trillium and Una Voce.

All public universities in the state of Washington have a language requirement at the bachelor degree level. Students should review those requirements and ensure they meet them prior to transfer. World language credit can be applied toward humanities, multicultural, and general elective requirements of the Associate of Arts degree.
