Literature has been a source of inspiration, entertainment and education for hundreds of years. We’ll look at some of the classic texts from the English Renaissance of the 16th-century right up to the present day.

We’ll also look at a wide range of theoretical perspectives, so you can engage with literary theory and think critically about the link between literature, society and the environment. Every text can raise cultural, ethical and political issues, and if you want to explore those then we’ll give you the chance to develop your analytical skills. For the language and linguistics elements of your course, we’ll assess how language shapes the world we live in, and how principles like humour, power and crosscultural relations are all dependent on the formation of language.
And of course, in today’s globalised world, many employers are very keen to employ graduates who can speak and understand another language. You could make yourself an attractive prospect for a national or international employer.

“The lecturers are by far the best thing about my course, they are such interesting people and genuinely want you to do well. Their personal touch and open door policy makes me want to be a better student, for myself and to make them proud.” This is evident with Sarah’s winning of the second year prize for highest overall achievement.
Sarah’s advice to anyone looking to study at Huddersfield would be to make the most of all the opportunities available. “There are so many things to get involved with like becoming a course rep, joining the English society, Huddersfield Literature Festival, poetry events and seminars with external speakers.”
Sarah spent her work placement at Bradford Magistrates Court as a support worker to witnesses and defendants in court. “It was the best thing I ever did,” explains Sarah, “It forced me to think
“The creative writing element of the course is really engaging and an opportunity to produce your own work, explains Sarah, “We cover topics such as writing for TV and experimental writing.”
The lecturers are by far the best thing about my course, they are such interesting people.
Sarah doesn’t regret her degree choice, “It has made me a more rounded person and opened my mind to the wider world.” After graduating, Sarah’s dream is to become a criminal defence barrister and she is well on her way to achieving her dream.

Meet our staff
Training the creative mind
Dr. Todd Borlik Senior Lecturer in English Literature
Born in Indianapolis in the US, Todd has since lived in five different US states and two other countries before hopping the pond to come to Huddersfield. Todd’s first visit to the UK when he was 18 was a formative experience. “It was the stage production I saw in the UK that drove me to major in English at university.”
I love sharing my enthusiasm for great books with students and witnessing as they start to blossom intellectually.
16
Having previously taught at the University of Washington and Bloomsburg University, Todd was attracted to Huddersfield by the friendliness and vibrancy of the English department, the staff’s publishing achievements and the University’s research credentials. “My research focuses on the writings of Shakespeare and his contemporaries. In particular, I’m fascinated by their attitudes toward the natural world, which in some ways are so curiously foreign, and in others strikingly familiar to our own. People are often surprised to learn that concerns such as air pollution, climate change and animal rights go back as far as the Renaissance.” Asked what he enjoys most about teaching, Todd replies, “I love sharing my enthusiasm for great books with students and witnessing as they start to blossom intellectually. An English degree,” he goes on to say, “trains the mind so students can creatively apply themselves to anything. English Literature students tend to end up with careers that are, on average, more fulfilling than most.”
