This English Language and Linguistics degree is designed to give you a solid foundation in linguistic theory, and to link this theory to the huge array of real-life contexts in which language is used. Our mix of core and an optional modules means that you will have the freedom to design the course that suits you, building on the topics that most capture your imagination. You’ll study the fundamentals of linguistic research - linguistic theory, historical linguistics, sociolinguistics, and research methodology - whilst having the option to combine linguistics with other modules from across the University of Sheffield, such as in English literature, human communication sciences, psychology, modern languages, computer science and mathematics.
Our world-leading research, active student community and civic ethos makes Sheffield one of the world's most exciting places to study English. Our academic staff are experts in their field and use their cutting-edge research to inform their teaching and the content of the modules that you'll study. They're also passionate, dedicated teachers who work tirelessly to ensure their students are inspired.
The academic aptitude and practical skills you will develop throughout your degree will give you a huge range of career options after university. As well as careers in journalism, the charity sector, marketing and communications, copywriting and publishing, our graduates have gone on to be web developers, speech and language therapists, accountants, engineers, computer scientists, (neuro)biologists, geneticists and legal practitioners.
