Course overview

Why study English at Warwick?
  • At the Department of English and Comparative Literary Studies you will be learning from experts at the forefront of their fields. A unique focus on Shakespeare draws on our proximity to the RSC in Stratford-upon-Avon. Other research strengths include renaissance literature, eighteenth century studies, American literature, women’s writing, world and comparative literature, post-colonial literature, creative writing, poetry and poetics, drama and performance, literary and cultural theory.
  • Guided choices and pathways in the second and third years reflect new developments in English Studies and staff research, and offer you excellent coverage of periods, genres, literary movements and theoretical approaches. This means you can tailor your degree to your own areas of academic interest.
  • We are the base for the Warwick Writing Programme, recently judged best in the UK, which is home to internationally known writers including A.L. Kennedy, David Vann, David Morley and Sarah Moss.
