Course summary
Liberal Arts at Loughborough is a uniquely interdisciplinary programme that explores what it means to be human, and how this is impacted by social, cultural, economic, and political conditions past and present. The degree enables you to think creatively across subject boundaries, engaging with contemporary, global challenges.Our degree offers both flexibility and focus. You can choose optional modules from different subjects in the School of Social Sciences and Humanities, including (but not limited to): Art History and Visual Culture, English, History, Modern Languages, Philosophy, Politics, and Sociology. These options are carefully curated to produce interdisciplinary connections between them, empowering you to both flexibly tailor the degree to your own interests, and build a focus on a specific theme or area, without having to Major in a particular subject. Modern Languages can be taken at every part of your degree and are available at all levels, including complete beginners who have never studied a Language before.Interdisciplinarity is a vital part of our Liberal Arts degree. At every stage of the course, you will take core Liberal Arts modules, allowing you to combine the knowledge and skills gained through your different subjects, and apply these to produce nuanced, interdisciplinary analyses.The skills you gain through this programme, such as critical thinking, independent judgement and decision making, and coordinating with others, are highly sought after by employers. Moreover, you can take a placement year, developing key skills in a relevant industry or sector, and significantly enhancing your employability after graduation. Alternatively, you can study abroad for a year, or even combine the two!
