Course summary
On this programme, you will examine the nature and functions of language, and gain a deeper understanding of human communication, while learning to use language more effectively. Discover of how language shapes the way we operate as individuals and within society.
At DMU, you will develop skills and knowledge that enhance your ability to understand how communication operates and how to use language effectively. You will be exposed to various theoretical approaches and learn to apply them to your own communications.
You will have opportunities to explore various aspects of education, childhood, and lifelong learning, discussing, debate and question educational structures, policy, practice and theory. Your Education Studies modules will deepen your understanding of how people develop and learn throughout life, as well as enhance your critical engagement with knowledge and ways of understanding.
Our curriculum is rooted in real-world contexts. English, as a language of significant cultural, political, and economic influence, is a key tool for employability, and the ability to use it effectively in any specific context is highly valued. Our graduates have pursued further research in areas like applied linguistics, forensic linguistics, and the language of coercive control, and have built careers in media, publishing, teaching, marketing, and the Civil Service.

This will include writing reports, performing analyses, producing group and individual presentations and blogs, and engaging in simulation or roleplay exercises -moving beyond traditional lectures and essays.
