Bachelor of Arts (Joint Hons) in English and French

at University of Strathclyde United Kingdom

The MLitt in Interdisciplinary English Studies focuses on the representation, imaginary transformation and symbolisation of culture, as mediated through language and literature.

This is achieved by drawing on the interdisciplinary strengths of the School of Humanities, and the English Studies section within the school.

The course will prepare you to think about the ways in which all aspects of a culture depend on narrative, fiction and language. You'll be able to apply this to working in education, business, government or a third sector organisation.

The course also provides a preparation for undertaking a PhD, which generally requires a Masters qualification as an entry requirement.

Study with us

• Opportunity to take your studies to a more specialised level or in a new direction
• Find connection between literary studies and other academic disciplines
• Benefit from the guidance of an expert supervisor
• Focus mainly on literature but also on other cultural practices and language

There are a number of ways you can study law at Strathclyde, one such way being the BA degree in combination with another subject.

Law is concerned with the study of the obligations, duties and rights which every member of society has in relation to one another and to the state.

The study of law is regarded not as purely vocational, but part of a broader education. Please note that studying law within the BA degree will not qualify you for entry to the legal profession. For professional qualifications in law, students follow the LLB programme.

Our main focus in psychology is the study of human behaviour.

You'll look at conditions of behaviour – how we learn, remember, coordinate our actions and interact with others – and the reasons for differences between individuals, such as personality or intelligence.

Due to the popularity of the course and performance criteria for entry into Honours (Year 4) the numbers admitted to Years 2 and 3 of the course are limited.

Study with us

• Develop an awareness of law and the legal implications of business operations which is sought after by employers
• Study the science of behaviour and the reasons for differences between individuals, across the lifespan
• Access the resources of the Andersonian Library, one of the finest in Scotland, offering a wide range of law reports, legislation, serials and monographs
• Acquire skills in communication, numeracy and critical thinking
• Progress to our LLB (Graduate Entry) after completing a joint Honours degree with Law and another subject
• Our BA degrees in Humanities & Social Sciences are initially broad-based. In Year 1 you'll study three subjects, including your chosen subject(s)

Understanding the development and functioning of environmental law across different levels of environmental governance is an important issue of our time. This requires moving beyond the traditional approach to teaching international, regional, EU and national environmental law in isolation from one other.

There's also a growing need to understand the relevance for environmental governance of the legal practices of indigenous peoples and local communities, business entities, local administrations, and transnational environmental practitioners.

Studying this course, you'll be equipped with a wide range of expertise in environmental law, in areas such as:

• Biodiversity
• Land
• Food and agriculture
• Climate change and energy
• Corporate accountability
• Environmental justice
• Water and oceans
• Human rights
• Sustainable development

You'll focus on the global dynamics of environmental law. In particular, you'll look at the mutual influences and interactions among different regulatory levels.

The programme draws both on cutting-edge academic research on global environmental law and on first-hand professional experience in environmental law and governance at different levels.

Study with us

• Learn to critically appraise and creatively contribute to environmental regulation and governance 
• Develop the skills and expertise to pursue a career in areas of transnational environmental law
• Specialise in thematic areas in environmental law
• Graduates of this programme will be able to critically appraise and creatively contribute to environmental regulation and governance at the international, transnational, national and local levels
