Abstract: Curriculum is an important part of postgraduates’ education. In view of the inadequate attention to curriculum study for English-majoring postgraduates, this study probed the problem concerning curriculum through a qualitative study of a typical educational institution for English-majoring postgraduates with in-depth interview as an instrument of data collection. The study discovered the problems of disproportionated courses on English studies and non-English studies, inadequate offering of important courses, insufficient guidance in postgraduates’ selection of courses, and unbalanced courses for theory and practice. Causes of the problems were examined and their coping strategies were proposed. The findings are likely to benefit the development of curriculum for English-majoring postgraduates in Chinese tertiary institutions.
