Description

Design your own degree with a highly flexible undergraduate programme.

BA Combined Honours is a challenging but rewarding degree. It offers a wider range of opportunities than a single or joint honours degree and can be tailored to suit your individual interests, strengths and career aims.

In your first year you will study three subject areas to enable you to develop a broad knowledge base of the humanities. In year two and your final year, you can combine two or three subjects for in-depth study, fostering the acquisition of an exceptionally broad knowledge base and interdisciplinary skill set.

Student engagement is central to our provision. You will be provided with many opportunities to get involved in co-managing your degree and supporting your peers. We ensure you develop your graduate attributes and do independent research and a final year project on a topic that interests you.

The BA Combined Honours offers a high level of flexibility, for example:

• You do not have to commit to subjects until arrival;
• You can change your mind about subject combinations and modules during the first two weeks of teaching;
• You can study subjects equally or through major-minor routes;
• All subject combinations have the same entry grades.

The BA Combined Honours also offers opportunities to include a work placement year or study abroad year within your degree.

Topics Likely To Be Covered

Subjects you may study include: English Literature, Creative Writing, Applied Linguistics, French, Spanish, German, Classical Studies, Ancient History, Egyptology, Latin, Ancient Greek, Media, History, American Studies, Medieval Studies, Cymraeg, and Film and Visual Culture.

Studying BA Combined Honours will enable you to develop your independence, adaptability, and confidence.

Graduating with a degree in BA Combined Honours will demonstrate that you have developed high-level research and organisational skills, as well as confidence in synthesising information from a wide range of subjects and sources.

Your employment options will be enhanced by your ability to demonstrate knowledge in more than one subject, your academic agility and proficiency in ‘big-picture’ thinking.
