Media and English

About this course

Media and English is a combination that brings together two disciplines concerned with how texts are made, how they work and what they do in the world. English literature and language develops your capacity for close reading, careful interpretation and well-evidenced argument about written texts across forms and periods. Media studies examines how images, sounds, data and narratives are produced, distributed and consumed across different platforms and industries, asking what this means for culture, politics and everyday life. Together they develop a sophisticated understanding of communication in both its established literary forms and its contemporary digital manifestations. At Leeds Beckett University, this three-year full-time programme includes a year abroad, which gives you the opportunity to study media and English in a different cultural and linguistic environment.
