Course summary

Why study this course

Our aim is for you to become a 鈥榞lobal citizen who thinks critically, understands cultural diversity and has a wealth of transferable skills.

On our 4-year English Literature and a Modern Language (BA) programme, youll develop high-level communication and critical-thinking skills, and foster resilience and independence through time spent in immersive foreign language contexts.

This is a dynamic and flexible degree programme that allows you to study literature from different periods and cultures, and across the range of principal literary genres, in combination with a modern language. Youll choose from three different languages we offer: Chinese, French or Spanish. And join the most appropriate pathway - those with an A level or equivalent competence in a modern language will take an Upper Elementary pathway. Those with limited or no knowledge of a modern language take our Elementary pathway.

English literature modules wont restrict you to studying the printed word: we are intrigued by the connections between literature and film, art, history, technology, language, and everyday life, and our teaching reflects these interests. Youll learn how literature addresses social, environmental, and economic concerns with the aim of creating a better, more inclusive world and developing sustainable solutions for the future of the planet.

Learning and assessment

We employ a range of teaching methods including lectures, seminars, language classes, and workshops.

Lecture content provides an overview of the key concepts and frameworks for a topic, equipping you with the skills to carry out independent research for the seminars and to develop and try out your own ideas. These materials may be delivered to you in face-to-face format or provided in a digital format so that you can study them at your own pace and convenience.

Seminars are interactive classes that consist of a small group of students and a member of the module teaching team. They may take various formats, including plenary group discussion, small group work and student-led presentations. Seminars provide a dynamic environment in which you can explore and critically engage with the ideas and debates outlined in lectures.

Our language teaching focuses on active learning and meaningful student participation. Ample opportunities are provided to regularly practise and develop the key language competencies and skills. Classes are designed to expand your linguistic proficiency and enhance your confidence and communication skills in a friendly and supportive environment.
