By combining Welsh and English Literature, you will gain a wealth of transferable skills and knowledge, opening the doors to a variety of career paths. The joint honours degree offers you the opportunity to pursue an advanced course of study, dividing your modules between Welsh and English Literature.
The Welsh course is relevant to contemporary Wales and delivered by a school noted for its research quality and impact. The course aims to produce graduates with a thorough academic and practical understanding of the Welsh language, its literature and culture, a high level of skill in written and spoken Welsh and well-developed employability and creative skills relevant to modern Wales. It offers core and optional modules to give you a grounding in language and literature as well as the opportunity to specialise in areas of personal or career interest.
The English Literature curriculum offers access to the whole span of English literature, from the Anglo-Saxon period to the 21st century. Nor is the curriculum restricted to the printed word – we are intrigued by the connections between literature and film, art, music, history, language and popular culture, and our teaching reflects these interests. While the English Literature course has no compulsory modules, you will gain experience of a wide range of literary texts, periods, movements and genres.
As a joint honours student, you will find that often there are complementary issues and perspectives that link subjects, be they critical analysis, historical contexts or academic approaches.
