Where will your words take you? English graduates have a cultural impact on the world we live in through their writing, from books and films to TV and news.English graduates produced A Handmaid’s Tale and Why I’m No Longer Talking to White People about Race, both books of profound cultural impact.English produces key cultural figures, e.g. broadcasters, filmmakers and novelists, so cinema trips we go on, news and current affairs we watch, and satirical TV and sitcoms we enjoy, owe much to English and Creative Writing.This four-year course includes an initial full-time Foundation Year and offers an alternative route into university and gaining a degree.This route is for you if you do not have the necessary qualifications or don’t yet feel ready to begin degree-level study, or are returning to education and would like some support to get up to speed with learning in a university setting.The Foundation Year in Arts and Communication will allow you to develop your academic skills and confidence as well as introduce you to key concepts, debates and skills that will support and inform your subsequent years of undergraduate study.Following successful completion of your Foundation Year, you’ll progress onto Year 1 of our English and Creative Writing (Hons) degree.
