BA (Hons) English

English at Nottingham Trent University is a future-facing course that interrogates the past. We encourage our students to think creatively about real-world issues and focus on how knowledge of literature matters in today’s world. Flexibility and creativity in expression and thought are central to our teaching, learning, and assessment, all of which are carried out via a range of methodologies embracing both traditional and digital formats and technologies. The course team are all active researchers and writers, whose expertise in new developments in the discipline feeds directly into your modules. You will study texts from the Renaissance to the present and be encouraged to stretch yourself intellectually and imaginatively by exploring literature both as practitioners and critics.

Our lively learning community offers a nurturing, friendly, and supportive environment, with extensive pastoral provision. Students select their pathway through the course via a variety of optional modules which gives the flexibility and freedom to develop critical and textual specialisms and interdisciplinary connections. In the final year, students have the freedom to undertake either a traditional dissertation or an alternative industry-focused capstone project.
