Bachelor of Arts (Combined Hons) in English Literature and Media Communications (with Professional Placement year)

Program Overview

You’ll explore education from many theoretical and ideological perspectives in your core modules. This in-depth knowledge of the education industry, combined with your specialist subject knowledge, gives you that all-important edge when you embark on your professional education career.

English Literature

This programme provides a broad-based education in English Literature that offers you a wide curriculum across historical periods, literary genres, and across disciplines. Under the general rubric of introducing you to ‘English Literature in the World’, the curriculum is defined by interdisciplinarity, internationality, and a literary engagement with worldly issues such environmental crisis and digital technologies. Studying English at Bath Spa you will encounter not only familiar, ‘classic’ writers and texts – Shakespeare, Austen, Joyce – but also the less familiar, such as postcolonial writing, European literatures in translation and modern experimental poetry as well as ‘popular’ genres such as the Gothic and crime fiction

The variety of modules offered reflects the capaciousness and openness of the discipline, which allows you to choose modules that will develop your own interests and passions whilst encouraging you to find and explore the connections between the different texts, periods, theories and approaches that you will encounter. This interdisciplinary breadth as well as disciplinary depth of the curriculum encourages you to see English Literature as an encompassing rather than an exclusive discipline, and in turn prepare you for a more expansive and inclusive view of the world around you.

These interdisciplinary, transnational and digital foci draw on staff expertise in key collaborative areas of research within the College of Liberal Arts. Our established specialisms in Environmental Humanities, Medical Humanities, Material Cultures and Book History directly inform our offering across all three levels.

You can study English Literature in a variety of ways

Study English Literature as a Single Honours award
Combine English Literature with another subject as part of a Joint or Major / Minor award

Media Communication:
Learn to communicate new ideas to audiences – locally and globally. Build academic and creative skills, with a focus on multi-platform media, gender and representation, film, game and television industries, music cultures and emerging digital technologies.

Explore how global media industries shape everyday culture. Examine why the media represents local communities the way that it does, and challenge the ways that social media influences how we perceive, consume and participate in daily life.

Partnering with prominent community and industry groups in Bath and beyond, you’ll build up a portfolio of research insights and media artefacts, working towards a final-year creative project that communicates original ideas to an industry audience.
