Course Overview

Most of our humanities subjects can be studied as joint honours as well as single honours. Joint honours programmes allow you to combine two subjects, which complement your interests or career goals. You will usually concentrate on both subjects equally. It can be possible to transfer between single and joint honours options, usually during your first or second year, and advice will be available from your academic tutor.

This course covers:

  • Literature: using a wide range of authors and texts, from classic to contemporary, explores literature in a global context, looking in depth at language and literary history.

  • Politics: how political structures and ideologies shape our lives and are organised differently around the world.
