Our English degree programme gives you the flexibility to combine the study of Literature and Language in a balance that suits you. You can maintain an equal balance of both subjects throughout your degree, or you can choose to specialise in either Literature or Language. We offer Literature modules covering a wide range of texts, genres and themes from the early medieval period to the present day. Our Language modules aim to provide understanding of the historical, social and psychological factors that shape the English language used in everyday life. In each year of a Major (75%) English programme, you will choose 90 credits from our range of English modules. This programme is available with a Year in China. The Year in China allows undergraduate students the opportunity to spend one year at our joint venture, Xi'an Jiaotong-Liverpool University (XJTLU), following XJTLU's BA China Studies degree classes. XJTLU is a fully English-speaking university, located in Suzhou. If you wish to study this programme with a Year in China please put the option code YC in the Further Choices section of your UCAS application form. This programme is available with a Year in Industry. Year Three is spent on a paid placement within an organisation in industry, broadly defined. You will be supported by the School of the Arts and the Department throughout, and your reflexive written account of the experience will contribute towards your final degree result. If you wish to study this programme with a Year in Industry please put the option code YI in the Further Choices section of your UCAS application form.

The first year is a foundation course designed to give you the basic skills and tools for the advanced study of English literature & language. You will have the opportunity to study English lit. from various periods and literary genres. Other modules help you to develop your reading and critical skills, and introduce you to modern approaches to the study of English language. In the 2nd and 3rd years, you will have the freedom to plan the specific path that you follow through the programme. The 2nd yr focuses on the major periods of English lit. and core aspects of English Language study; to ensure that your study has appropriate breadth, you must take at least one unit devoted to pre-1800 literature (this can also be taken at Level 3). In the 3rd year the emphasis is on specialisation within different genres and learning to work more independently - for instance, a dissertation on a topic of your choice provides you with the opportunity to explore that topic in depth.
