Variety, flexibility and a chance to maximise your employability are just some of the advantages on offer when you choose to study a combined honours degree.

English Literature
If you have a passion for reading books, and thinking about the ideas and debates they reflect and inspire, then you’ll enjoy studying English Literature with us.
You’ll explore the way that literature helps us to imagine what it is like to walk in other people’s shoes, and how it can take us on journeys of self-discovery.
You’ll engage in topical discussions about how books empower people to tell their own stories, and how they help us redefine notions of gender, sexuality, ethnicity, class and other markers of identity. Booklovers will feel right at home here.
Religion, Philosophy and Ethics
Religious, philosophical and ethical concerns often feature in the media and underpin a range of controversial issues in the world we share.
If you like thinking about and debating these subjects, then you’ll enjoy this course.
You’ll be taught by an experienced team of academics who have published widely on topics such as Buddhist philosophy, contemporary food ethics, religion and literature, conflicts over Jewish identity and interfaith dialogue.
