BA (Hons) Liberal Arts

... United Kingdom
... University of Essex

Course Overview

Knowledge is rooted in the experiences of people across the world. It is created from memory, culture, landscape, and myth. This knowledge is often split into separate ‘disciplines’ such as those in the sciences, maths, history, geography, literature, and art. However, true knowledge does not recognize these boundaries; the world is complex, interconnected, and networked.

Our course is for you if you love studying a variety of subjects, and want to maintain this breadth of knowledge at university. With the opportunity to major in History, Literature, Art History, Philosophy, Politics, Media Studies, or Sociology, you broaden your horizons by exploring the ways in which the humanities and social sciences help us to think imaginatively and critically about the worlds we live in.

You take modules that cover the historical foundations of the humanities, challenge dominant worldviews, and explore innovative and subversive essays and manifestos. The flexible structure of this course allows you to choose a range of optional modules across literature, film, philosophy, history of art, history, linguistics, politics, sociology, and modern languages.
