Course summary


Why choose this course

• A course for the digital age in which you'll develop 'future-proof' skills that are highly valued by employers, such as applied creativity, problem-solving and emotional intelligence.
• You’ll study modules which balance traditional texts with modules on Writing Gaming, Queer Ecologies, Monsters, Mystics, and Demons, and The Gothic Imagination.
• Excellent pastoral care with small class sizes, sector-leading staff-student ratio and an individualised approach.
• Our focus is on employability, preparing you for careers in journalism, publishing, marketing, media, communications, education, and copywriting.
• Outstanding professional placement and study abroad opportunities with companies such as EDF, Volkswagen, Macmillan, Disney and with our partner universities across the globe.


What you will study

The English literature part of this course covers a range of literary periods, authors, genres and theories. You’ll analyse classic works, as well as innovative texts and genres, such as travel writing, nineteenth-century theatre and fiction, science-fiction, and contemporary global literatures. The foreign language component is taught almost exclusively in French, giving you high-level language training. You can spend your third year on placement in a country where French is spoken, giving you the opportunity to study English literature at one of our partner institutions across Europe and/or work in one of the many companies with which we have links. The two elements of this course complement one another and enhance your learning, giving you unique insights into language, literature and culture.
