AIU’s Doctorate degree in English
Literature goes one step further by allowing
students to study and research multiple
key areas of computer science to develop
a unique foundation of practical knowledge
and computer science theory.
Your AIU Distance Learning Doctorate program
in English Literature will be a custom-made
program, designed just for you by you and
your advisor. This flexibility to meet your
needs is seldom found in other distance
learning programs. Our program does not
require every student to study the same
subjects and use the same books and other
learning materials as every other student.
Instead our online Doctoral programs are
designed just for you. They are individually
designed to meet your needs and help you
to reach your professional and personal
goals.

or areas you may develop and work on during
