English Language and Literature, BA (Hons)

The Joint Honours BA in English Language and Literature offers a rich interdisciplinary curriculum that integrates the analytical precision of linguistics with the interpretive depth of literary studies. You will engage with the structural foundations of the English language, whilst exploring its historical development and sociocultural implications. You will critically examine literary texts across genres, periods, and global contexts, supporting your understanding of narrative structures, identity, and representation. This programme facilitates graduate attributes such as professional competence, global awareness, and effective communication and prepares you to address contemporary challenges within education, media, and culture.

We require a minimum IELTS score of 6.0 overall (with a minimum of 5.5 in each component) or equivalent English language qualification. Please see the Swansea University admissions English language requirements page for a full list of accepted qualifications and tests.
