Course summary
The Mlitt in Interdisciplinary English Studies focuses on the representation, imaginary transformation and symbolisation of culture, as mediated through language and literature. This is achieved by drawing on the interdisciplinary strengths of the School of Humanities, and the English Studies section within the school. The course will prepare you to think about the ways in which all aspects of a culture depend on narrative, fiction and language. You'll be able to apply this to working in education, business, government or a third sector organisation. The course also provides a preparation for undertaking a PhD, which generally requires a Masters qualification as an entry requirement. Ranked 3rd in the UK for English (Times Good University Guide 2023)
