Course Description
Our joint honours course allows students to pursue their own areas of interest within English Literature and History of Art whilst also providing them with a solid foundation in both disciplines and a range of personal and professional skills which will serve as a springboard for their future career development. The programme is carefully designed to enable students to gradually develop their knowledge and skills and become autonomous, effective and independent learners.
English Literature offers students the opportunity to study British and world literatures through a model of progressive specialisation that teaches advanced literary critical skills in the context of periodised, thematised, formal and theoretical modules. The History of Art course at Brookes emphasises the first-hand study of artworks and buildings, with most modules including visits to sites in Oxford or London.
