Master [MLit English] From Bournemouth University

Most English degrees divide literary study into different historical periods, such as Medieval, Shakespearean and Romantic, and work chronologically through them. We however divide our units not by historical period, but by subject theme.

WhatÕs more, there is a strong emphasis on writing and communication, and this includes business writing, journalism and writing for the media. There is also the opportunity to pursue a creative pathway all the way through the degree.

As well as learning on campus, youÕll get to the opportunity to experience literary study in a real-world setting. If you pursue a four-year course youÕll complete a four-week placement, alternatively for a five-year course youÕll do 30-weeks in industry. The placement is a key feature in developing your abilities and understanding of the workplace. It also offers you a platform for entering a wide variety of professions after graduation.
