The specialist knowledge and broad-ranging skills you will develop on this programme will prepare you for a career in almost any professional environment.
The types of skills you will gain include:
The BA (Hons) Liberal Studies (English) programme focuses on the history of English Literature from the medieval period, through the Renaissance, Enlightenment and Romantic eras and up to the present day. To complement your programme, you will study Shakespearean Drama, US Literature (from the colonial period to the present), Cinematic Adaption of Literature, Literary Criticism and Theory, and Creative Writing (non-fiction, fiction and poetry).
You will also take a selection of elective modules across the Liberal Studies curriculum ranging from art history to international relations, psychology to theatre studies. These modules enable you to diversify your education and develop the broad-based skills that are valuable to any employer.
In your second year, you will also have the option to spend a term abroad at one of our partner universities. This provides the unique opportunity to explore a diverse range of topics from another cultural perspective.
This degree programme will give you a highly transferable set of skills, crucially the abilities to analyse textual materials and construct arguments in response to them. These skills will prepare you for a wide and diverse variety of job roles in almost any industry.
