BA (Hons) English Literature with Foundation Year

... United Kingdom
... Canterbury Christ Church University

Course Overview

You’ll explore the way that literature helps us to imagine what it is like to walk in other people’s shoes, and how it can take us on journeys of self-discovery.

You’ll engage in topical discussions about how books empower people to tell their own stories, and how they help us redefine notions of gender, sexuality, ethnicity, class, and other markers of identity. Booklovers will feel right at home here.

We’re proud of our high level of student satisfaction, in the latest National Student Survey 100% of our English Literature students were satisfied overall with their course, and 94% said staff made the subject interesting.

You have an opportunity to apply your degree skills on placement at Level 5 and to recognize that the transferable skills that an English Literature degree provides are valuable and highly desirable in a wide range of occupations. This flexibility enables English Literature graduates to choose from and build a resilient career in many different employment sectors and occupations. Careers include media, publishing, advertising, PR, human resources, journalism, social work, teaching, and management roles in both the private and public sectors. There are also lots of opportunities for further academic study, and many of our students go on to pursue postgraduate work in English Literature and other related fields.
