COURSE DESCRIPTION
The Bachelor of Arts will equip you for today’s rapidly changing world. You will develop skills and capacities necessary to understand how the world has come to be the way it is today. Studying English literatures will get you thinking creatively about the English language. You will analyse theories, critique prose and verse, and take a more critical look at the signs and words surrounding us every day.
Develop in-demand skills including analytical thinking, exceptional written and oral communication skills, and the capacity to appreciate differences in cultural perspectives. At UOW, English literature is studied with regard to style, theme and form, and in relation to questions of race, gender, sexuality, class and nation. This major introduces you to a broad range of texts, novels, poetry, essays, short stories, film, diaries and letters from medieval times to the modern, with a strong international focus.
We have a broad list of subjects that you can choose from depending on your area of interest, including literature and film, romantics, US literature, Victorians, Shakespeare, and Indigenous literature. In addition to the English literatures major you will choose a minor or a second major from the Bachelor of Arts offerings.
Completion of full majors at regional campuses is subject to availability at time of enrolment.
