We also offer you the opportunity to study abroad in the third year of a four-year programme.

The School of English is a large and thriving department but we take great care in ensuring that it is a supportive environment in which to be a student. From the moment you arrive, you are an integral part of a scholarly community of students, teachers and researchers and can participate in a dialogue which seeks to push the boundaries of the subject into new fields of social and cultural inquiry. You are taught by leading international researchers and award-winning creative writers in a location steeped in literary history.Ê
