Text and works of literature are all around us, from books and plays to magazines and digital communications. Studying English or Literature helps you to learn how to analyse these works and find their meanings – a great skill valued in many career professions. English and Literature is made up of a wide range of areas such as linguistics, creative writing, language and cognition, and English language and its central role in society.
On English and Literature courses at the University of Stirling you can study literary works from the medieval period to the present day, as well as learning about linguistics, developing your creative writing skills and delving into the history of the English language.
