- Students explore the workings and history of the English language, and how it shapes identities and the world around us. There are options to study language acquisition, language history, structure, dialects, sociolinguistics and ecolinguistics, and apply them to gain insights into gender, race, media and society.
- This course is primarily taught in small-group seminars where students are actively involved in discussions and class activities. Assessment is entirely by coursework and consists of essays, a 9,000 word dissertation, and some creative tasks such as designing posters or making digital stories. Students will be supported with their own Personal Tutor and one-to-one help with essay writing.
- Students can also opt for a 3-year full-time study program.
