About Dr. Karen Skinazi

Dr. Karen E. H. Skinazi is Associate Professor of Literature and Culture and Director of Liberal Arts at the University of Bristol. After criss-crossing the Canada-US border for many years—getting her BA at York University, and MA and PhD at New York University, and teaching at Fordham University,  University of Alberta, and Princeton University—Karen settled in the UK and for the last six years has been directing the dynamic Liberal Arts programme at Bristol. Karen also teaches in the English department and supervises MPhils and PhDs in English. Her expertise is in Canadian literature, American literature, women’s writing, multiethnic novels, and Jewish Studies.

Speak to Karen about:

Liberal Arts at the University of Bristol: A programme that sits across three Schools (Humanities, Arts, and Modern Languages), Liberal Arts attracts students who like to think and learn about issues from a number of angles, engaging a truly interdisciplinary perspective. Unusual for British degrees, the Liberal Arts programme has flexibility and variety; students take a pathway (e.g., English or History or Philosophy) that is similar to a North American major,  as well as core and optional courses in the Faculty. The three-year programme leads to a BA, and the four-year programme, which involves a year abroad to one of our 30 or so partner institutions around the world, sees students graduating with an integrated Master’s: an MLibArts.
