Why study English Literature as part of a Combined Studies degree?
English Literature is the subject for you if you enjoy reading and analysing novels, plays or poetry. At UEL we look at literary texts past and present, both in their historical context and according to questions they raise about culture now. English Literature offers a wide range of transferable skills much in demand among employers today. These include the ability to read and think critically, to formulate persuasive arguments both in written and oral forms, to work as part of a team and to organise materials in order to meet deadlines.
