- Being human: how we make sense of ourselves in the world - Making connections, making a difference, applying your knowledge and skills - Problem solving, creativity and action: a course which make demands of you and supports you in achieving them This course offers a new approach to learning about and through the Humanities. The course is interdisciplinary, and draws on the skills, methods and approaches that we use to study History, English Literature, Politics and Philosophy. It asks us to think about our place in the world and how we see ourselves – and how others see us. It poses ethical questions, and considers political answers to them. It places art, literature, science and the environment within a range of different contexts – historical, cultural, philosophical. It asks what it means to ‘be human’ and how being human – realising our potential - can enable us to make a difference to those around us, through the practical application of the insights that come from systematic study in and of the Humanities. It is also a professional course. Running throughout your study of other cultures, landscapes and cities, ethics and ideas will be – amongst other things – the development of professional writing skills; using social media to promote you or your business; project design, planning, implementation and evaluation; team working, developing empathy and ethical leadership. This is a course through which you will build knowledge and expertise, but also confidence, self-awareness, and the capacity to take the initiative and solve problems. This course draws on the disciplines that make up the Humanities but applies them in different ways. It looks at the ways in which understanding history informs medical decision-making, and at storytelling as a means of solving problems or achieving change. It asks you to make connections, and evaluate options. You'll develop demonstrable professional skills and experience - how to work with others, how to make your case, how to manage resources - while exploring the ideas and concepts that underpin the study of the past, literature, politics and philosophy.

Your first year provides an interdisciplinary foundation for the study that follows, and for the practical projects you'll undertake throughout your degree. It will show you how theory and practice come together; and equip you with some methods and techniques which you can apply in your research, project planning and analysis. The second year focuses on the development of effective communication skills: making a case, constructing compelling arguments, setting out a clear rationale for your project. It takes these skills out of the University and considers their application in the arts and culture, public policy and politics, business and creative enterprise. It continues to draw on a wide range of ideas, concepts and content, using our knowledge of the past, our experience of the present and our hopes for the future as a way reflecting on contemporary challenges and opportunities. Your final project brings your insights and understanding together, and enables to you design and develop and your own piece of work. This might focus on a research question, or represent your response to a define problem. It could involve working with an external partner, or developing a proposal for future project. You'll complete this alongside a range of optional modules through which you can continue to extend and expand your expertise and your professional skills.

You'll produce a range of material for assessment, from policy papers to advocacy documents, blogposts and podcasts, concept designs and strategic plans.
