There’s more to studying English than being a skilled reader – it’s about being a skilled writer and thinker too. This is a global subject that influences writing and performance all over the world. At the same time, it pays attention to local communities and cultures. A degree in English is a great launchpad into many areas as you’ll be seen as a top communicator by potential employers. From the very earliest Anglo-Saxon poems and ballads to the latest bestsellers, we’ve designed our English programmes to cover a whole range of literature. Our teaching team is made up of 40 academics who are either world experts or rising stars – you might have already come across them on the radio or TV.
Embracing diversityThe topics you’ll cover are varied and inclusive – you’ll unravel cultural history and the historical approach to literature, social justice, mixed media and more. Our modules span the whole history of writing in English too, and span a wide geography from the East End of London to India. After you graduate, you could apply your skills in the world of publishing and journalism. Or perhaps you’d prefer to make a difference by working in education or the charity sector. What will we help you achieve?

Queen Mary University of London welcomes applications from students currently studying Level 3 BTEC qualifications and will consider you for entry to the majority of our undergraduate courses. The typical entry requirements will vary according to the course you are applying for.Some of our courses require specific subject knowledge which you may not be able to cover as part of a Level 3 BTEC qualification and we may therefore require additional Level 3 qualifications to ensure that you are suitably prepared for relevant courses. A small number of our courses do not accept BTEC qualifications for entry, either as a standalone qualification, or in combination with other qualifications at Level 3.Information on our typical entry requirements and guidance for applying can be found at http://www.qmul.ac.uk/undergraduate/entry/btec/If you are at all unsure about the acceptability of your BTEC qualification for entry, please contact the Admissions team for individual advice (admissions@qmul.ac.uk).
