Bachelors in Comparative Literature

4 Years On Campus Bachelors Program

University of California Davis

Program Overview

Through the study of writings from authors of different cultures, backgrounds and periods of history, we learn to appreciate the commonalities all humans share as well as the differences that give rise to our diversity. From Aesop's fables and Lady Murasaki's early Japanese novels to the contemporary work of such writers as Morrison and Garcia Marquez, comparative literature majors explore a broad range of genres, styles and themes. The comparative literature major at UCD combines the benefits of a small program with the opportunities available in a large, intellectually diverse research university.
