MA English Literature

Find out why English graduates recommend the postgraduate course, how it helped them secure their roles, and there’s an insight from the course tutor. This outward-looking, contemporary and relevant course regards you and your cohort as co-producers of knowledge, and encourages you to think about the relevance of your research in the world outside academia, emphasising how literature is embedded in pressing cultural and political issues. You are prepared for career success in a variety of contexts, with highly valued and transferrable skills including verbal presentation; planning and management of small and large research; personal reflection and evaluation; and writing for diverse audiences. You participate in a postgraduate conference, to plan, organise and deliver an event where you present a piece of your original research. The research module cultivates high-level skills in independent research and aptitudes in planning, organisation, marketing, and working collaboratively in leading and support roles.
