The graduate curriculum offers broad coverage of 法国, 讲法语的人, 伊比利亚, 拉丁美洲的, 和意大利文学. Survey courses are interspersed with seminars that are organized according to more specialized principles of research, 比如作者, 主题, 类型, 或者理论方法. Taking into account the many different ways that the study of literature has been pursued over the past two hundred years, graduate programs in RLL offer students an opportunity to explore literary, 语言, and cultural phenomena relating to the Romance languages from a large number of traditional and contemporary perspectives, 包括电影和媒体. An awareness of critical theory and the importance of history are essential aspects of our graduate programs; for this reason, students are strongly encouraged to take courses focused exclusively on theory as well as those that treat the history and philology of the Romance languages. With few exceptions, courses are taught in the target language.

The general aim of courses in the department is to combine the close, 小心, analytical reading of major works of a Romance language with an appreciation of how and why the study of literature continues to occupy a privileged position for confronting the challenges of communication and understanding that necessarily underlie all the liberal arts and that are negotiated daily in every walk of life. In other words, the study of literature is the study of life.
