Art History and English Literature at University of Manchester - UCAS

Course summary

BA Art History and English Literature brings together expertise from two subject areas to give you a greater breadth of study. The emphasis is on flexibility and choice within this joint degree, which also offers opportunities for field trips and museum and gallery visits. Art History provides grounding in European and North American art and architecture, covering topics to the present day, as well as subjects in global art history. We offer a broad choice of subject areas, paired with in-depth study and research. Strengths are in Medieval, Renaissance, Post-Renaissance, Modern, Contemporary and Global Art History. You will also discover a range of English literature from the Anglo-Saxon period to the present day, and will be able to study American, Irish and post-colonial literatures, as well as cultural theory, creative writing and film. You can attend lectures and exhibitions at the internationally renowned Manchester Centre for Anglo Saxon Studies, while the English Research Seminar and CriticalMASS, the American Studies research seminar, also offer a series of interesting talks. The Centre for New Writing hosts a regular public event series, Literature Live, which brings contemporary novelists and poets to the University to read and engage in conversation. Manchester Literature Festival also takes place at venues at the University and across the city each autumn.
