Description:

At UEA you’ll be able to focus on Anglo-American interchanges, while also exploring the many aspects of English and American literature which lie beyond it: English literature prior to the 19th century, and aspects of American literature, such as Native and Chicano writing.

The writers of Britain and America are deeply connected: often they employ the same language, address the same readers, share the same cultural reference points. But at the same time, the two traditions differ sharply in their typical values and tones of voice. This programme allows you to experience these continuities and distinctions. You’ll have access to modules on both the English Literature and American Studies degrees. This combination means that you encounter the teaching of two different departments: the interdisciplinary work of American Studies, and the more literary focus of the School of Literature, Drama and Creative Writing.

Students studying for Canadian High School or Secondary School Diplomas, usually completing study in the twelfth grade, will be considered for entry to our undergraduate degree programmes. Most courses will require an overall score of between 70% and 80%.

For some disciplines, a slightly lower average percentage may be considered. Holders of the Diplome d'Etudes Collegiales (from Quebec) will also be considered.
