Course summary

Study the relationship between English Language and English Literature. You will explore and analyse a range of literary texts from various contexts and historical periods, from Beowulf to the present day, alongside exploring the complex relationships between literature, politics and history whilst considering how words combine to inspire us and move us, to persuade, encourage and amuse us. Study modules may include Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL), creative writing, gender and culture, gothic and 19th century literature, and contemporary fiction. Swansea itself has a rich literary heritage; it is the birthplace of Dylan Thomas, widely regarded by many literary scholars as one of the twentieth century's most influential lyrical poets. You will have the opportunity to get involved in projects with the Dylan Thomas Centre and the National Theatre in Wales. Throughout the course, all students have access to events, workshops and employer talks, including an annual conference which support final year students with the transition into the world of work. With this degree programme you have the option to study abroad for a semester as part of your degree. You can either choose to go East and study in Hong Kong, China or Singapore or West and study in North America or Canada. This Semester Abroad opportunity costs no additional tuition fees; this means that you have the chance to study at an overseas institution without having to pay any further fee on top of the tuition fee you are already paying. You will, however, have to pay for your flight costs, accommodation, living expenses and any additional expenditure. Set in parkland overlooking Swansea Bay on the edge of the breathtaking Gower Peninsula, you will benefit from close access to beautiful beaches and countryside, while being in close proximity to a thriving city centre. English Literature at Swansea is ranked Top 25 in the UK for Student Satisfaction (Complete University 大象传媒 2024) and English Language is ranked 7th in the UK for Student Satisfaction (Complete University 大象传媒 2024).
