Our BA English and Philosophy course gives you the opportunity to study two distinct disciplines:
* Philosophy, where you'll question everyday assumptions and enquire into the foundations of other forms of knowledge
* English literature, where you'll study literary texts to explore the complexities of the past and present.
You'll learn the fundamental philosophical principles of logic, metaphysics, epistemology, ethics and political philosophy.
Alongside this, you'll study English literature in its full extent and diversity. From the medieval period to the present day, you'll investigate individual authors, topics and genres.
You'll also be able to explore your own interests, by choosing from an expansive range of stimulating optional and research-led units.
Our curriculum is designed to ensure you benefit directly from the research expertise of staff from both disciplines.
This course is your chance to think boldly, read widely and ask the questions that really matter.
