Course Overview

Our MRes Comparative and Literary Cultural Studies will give you a thorough grounding in comparative literature and cultural studies in the context of modern languages. This multidisciplinary, flexible course also allows you to explore the cultures of a variety of language-speaking areas: French, German, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese and Brazilian, and Spanish and Latin American. You can take a broadly comparative pathway through the degree or choose to engage with one or more specific language-speaking areas. The course brings together a team of renowned academic experts in cultural studies, visual studies, linguistics, comparative literature and cultures, history, and thought. We will help you steer a pathway through the program that reflects your specific interests, career and personal ambitions, and language knowledge. You will be able to choose whether you study texts in the original language(s) or in English translation; if you work in the original language(s) this will be reflected in the final degree title (e.g. MRes French and Spanish). After specialist training in research skills, you will undertake a piece of independent research, culminating in a 30,000-word dissertation. Graduates go into careers in international organizations or businesses, translating and teaching, research and journalism. Possible professions include teacher, researcher, journalist, or translator. This degree may also be useful in becoming an academic librarian, writer, arts administrator, or advertising copywriter.

General Eligibility

Our standard postgraduate entry requirement is a second-class honors degree (2:2 or above)
