Course overview
On our BA English programme, you’ll study contemporary and international writing and communication, and how it links to past, present – and imaginary future – narratives. With an array of modules, such as ‘Emotional and Artificial Intelligence’, ‘Prized Texts’, ‘Scandalous Lives’, ‘Movement and Migration’ and more, you’ll be able to follow your passions to create a personalised academic experience. You will engage with a range of textual forms from manuscripts to printed works, from stage performances to films, and digital media.
The nature of the ‘texts’ considered is wide-ranging and varied, including non-fiction forms, and this programme will encourage you to explore how ideas are communicated to and received by various public audiences. Hull’s vibrant literary scene offers countless opportunities to showcase your unique voice. Join thriving societies, connect with leading authors, and gain hands-on experience designing, editing, and publishing work through our in-house magazines, Document 1 and Torchfire.
