This is one of several specialist routes available in our BA (Honours) Arts and Humanities (R14). The degree starts by developing your understanding of the world we live in through a variety of perspectives, periods and subjects – including English language. You’ll then take two specialist English language modules, discovering how the English language works, its history, its politics and how it came to be such a hugely influential global language. Using the illustrated module books, and extensive audio, video and interactive material, you’ll explore communication and creativity in language and its written, spoken and visual potential in diverse and changing cultural and technological settings.<br/><br/>Alongside your study of English language, you can choose to study a second specialism from art history, classical studies, creative writing, history, modern languages, music, philosophy and religious studies. This will entitle you to include both subjects in the name of your degree, or complete your degree with modules chosen from a wide range of options.<br/><br/>**Key features of the course**<br/><br/><br/>- Specialise in English language within a broad and flexible arts and humanities degree<br/><br/><br/>- Develop your critical thinking and communicative skills that will be valuable in the workplace and to further study<br/><br/><br/>- Follow up aspects of English language study that particularly interest you<br/><br/><br/>- Select a second specialism to complement and enhance your study of English language<br/>
