Our Humanities based courses within the Institute of Education and Humanities offers students a flexible and exciting way to study through our innovative immersive teaching system.
This gives you the opportunity to design a programme of study that suits you as an individual, complimenting your interests, academic strengths and future aspirations. We can help you find the programme that’s right for you.
You can choose from five types of flexible programmes:
- Single Honours Degree: Specialise in one subject and choose an additional 2 humanities-based modules from anything available within the Institute.
- Joint Honours Degree: Choose two subject areas you are interested in and combine them by taking modules in each of the two subjects
- Major/Minor Degree: Compliment your ‘major’ single honours subject, which accounts for 75% of your course, with a ‘minor’ subject which accounts for the remaining 25%.
- BA Liberal Arts: A degree designed by you, choosing from the best of what the humanities has to offer.
