Our joint honours course allows students to pursue their own areas of interest within Education Studies and English Literature whilst also providing them with a solid foundation in the discipline and a range of personal and professional skills which will serve as a springboard for their future career development. The programme is carefully designed to enable students to gradually develop their knowledge and skills and to become autonomous, effective and independent learners.

Education Studies is the academic study of education comprising a multi-disciplinary range of modules in history, psychology, philosophy, sociology and educational research. English Literature offers students the opportunity to study British and world literatures through a model of progressive specialisation that teaches advanced literary critical skills in the context of periodised, thematised, formal and theoretical modules.
