Course Overview

Pursue your ambitions in history, philosophy, and theology with the BA (Hons) English and History at University of Warwick. Based in Coventry, England, this Russell Group university offers a research-led approach to learning, with a 3-year full-time structure. We’re used to thinking of Literature and History as separate and distinct subjects. Both produce knowledge of the past; both focus on the reading and interpretation of texts; and both are concerned with narrative, or stories. Perhaps instead we should think of history as literature based on a true story, and of literature as a kind of living, imaginative history. Home/uk fees are £9,535 per year, and a minimum IELTS score of 7.0 is required for admission. Graduates from this programme benefit from strong career prospects, with 98% student satisfaction rating, a median graduate salary of £29,000 within three years, and a 95% continuation rate.
