Bachelor of Arts (Hons) in English Literature and History (with Placement Year)
Program Overview
If you have a love of both literature and history, this course is for you. There are enormous benefits to studying the two disciplines in tandem.
You will use poems, novels, and other works of literature to interpret and understand past societies and cultures, and, at the same time, you will bring textual analysis to historical sources. You’ll be asking questions about how the two disciplines differ, but also how the methods and approaches of the historian and literature specialist overlap. By the end of the course, you will have developed both the rigorous research skills of the historian and the advanced communication skills of the literature student.
The distinctiveness of the course lies in its combination of academic rigour with a concern for employability and developing ‘citizen scholars’. As part of this, we offer options to broaden your experience and cultural sensitivity by studying abroad for a semester in your second year.
Why choose Northumbria to study English Literature and History?
The uniqueness of our Literature degrees lies in how they bring together the study of stories and how we tell them across hundreds of years, with a contemporary focus on your career, helping you take your cultural understanding into the twenty-first century world of work.
