Undergraduate programme
Read widely. Write precisely. Speak clearly.
BA English studies literature and language together: how writers build meaning, how grammar shapes it, and how the reader responds. It suits students who want careers in writing, teaching, media or further literary study.
- Literature with method
Texts are read closely and placed in context, with written work argued from evidence rather than opinion.
- Language and grammar
English grammar, phonetics and language skills that improve both writing and pronunciation.
- Communication practice
Presentations, group discussions and writing workshops in the communication lab.
