BA (Hons) English Literature with Digital Media and Communications

... United Kingdom
... University of Birmingham

Course Overview

Our brand-new English Literature with Digital Media and Communications degree explores the many ways we talk to one another – face-to-face conversation, news and social media, cinema and theatre and beyond. It will also introduce you to a broad range of periods and types of literature – everything from medieval literature to twenty first century digital literary culture. 

This degree will prepare you for life beyond your studies in a variety of careers - in journalism, media, marketing, creative arts, advocacy and many more.

You will explore literary genres alongside the key principles in digital cultures, media studies and professional communication through a range of exciting modules. This degree gives you a balance of classroom-based study and practical, hands-on learning, in our state-of-the-art facilities, including our world-leading Shakespeare Institute, language labs, studio spaces and editing suites.
