Aimed at high-achievers, this stimulating and challenging degree exposes students to contemporary thinking in the humanities. With a focus on the practical application of the humanities to real world problems, students will graduate equipped to be at the centre of debates about our future.
With a strong focus on group work and collaboration students will enhance their verbal and written communication skills – making them highly employable in a range of areas and industries.
Embedded in this degree, the extended major in Western Civilisation immerses students in a creative and diverse curriculum with a strong critical focus on the key intellectual movements which have shaped Western Civilisation from antiquity to the current day. Students read, study and critique major works of literature, art, music, politics, law, and religion, and develop an understanding of the dynamic interplay of social, historical and aesthetic forces that have contributed to evolving conceptions of the West.
