MA English Literature

This outward-looking, current and relevant course regards you and your cohort as co-producers of knowledge. It encourages you to think about the relevance of your research outside academia, emphasising how literature is embedded in pressing cultural and political issues.

You are prepared for career success in various contexts with highly valued and transferrable skills, including verbal presentation; planning and managing small and large research; personal reflection and evaluation; and writing for diverse audiences.

You participate in a postgraduate conference to plan, organise and deliver an event where you present a piece of your original research. The research module cultivates high-level skills in independent study and aptitudes in planning, organisation, marketing, and working collaboratively in leading and support roles.

An undergraduate degree of 2.2 or above in English Literature or a cognate discipline. Students with other relevant experience or equivalent qualifications will be considered case-by-case.
