English Literature and Creative Writing: Undergraduate | University of Surrey

What you need to know about studying English literature and creative writing

What you will study

The English literature part of this course covers a range of literary periods, authors, genres and theories. You’ll analyse classic works, as well as innovative texts and genres, such as travel writing, nineteenth-century theatre and fiction, science-fiction, and contemporary global literatures.

The foreign language component is taught almost exclusively in Spanish, giving you high-level language training.

You can spend your third year on placement in a country where Spanish is spoken, giving you the opportunity to study English literature at one of our partner institutions across Europe and/or work in one of the many companies with which we have links.

The two elements of this unique course complement one another and enhance your learning, giving you unique insights into language, literature and culture.

Please be aware: the course content and modules listed for this course are subject to change for the 2024/25 academic year, whilst we undertake a curriculum design review. Please contact the programme leader if you have any queries about the course.

Timetables

Course timetables are normally available one month before the start of the semester. Please note that while we make every effort to ensure that timetables are as student-friendly as possible, scheduled teaching can take place on any day of the week (Monday – Friday). Wednesday afternoons are normally reserved for sports and cultural activities. View our Code of practice for the scheduling of teaching and assessment (PDF).

Teaching

Teaching on our English literature courses is both stimulating and encouraging. You will experience a wide range of teaching methods, including lectures, seminars, tutorials and workshops. Our academics produce internationally excellent research and are skilled and dedicated teachers who convey ideas enthusiastically and accessibly. In addition to lectures in your first year, you’ll work closely with tutors and fellow students in smaller seminar groups. During your second and third year, you’ll become increasingly independent, working on your dissertation and contributing to student-led sessions in Year 3.

In the language component of your degree, we support you in becoming an independent language learner and confident communicator, and place great emphasis on the teaching of study skills. Our teaching style is innovative and highly engaging, involving student participation at every level. You are taught mostly in small groups, and almost always in the target language, thus gaining confidence in a range of transferable skills whilst improving your language competency.

Tutors encourage you to participate in discussions. Individual module tutors happily discuss academic concerns and personal tutors are always ready to advise and assist you if you have any personal or academic issues.

All learning is fully supported by the University’s virtual learning environment, and you will gain a range of computing skills throughout the course.

There may be occasions when the delivery of your teaching is supported by graduate teaching assistants. The University has a set of procedures that govern the use of postgraduate research students in this way.

Assessment

We assess modules individually and award credits for the successful completion of each one. Assessment takes place through a combination of examination and/or coursework, practical examinations and reports.

Placements

Our award-winning Professional Training programme offers you the option to spend a career-enhancing year in industry, either in the UK or abroad. We have thousands of placement providers to choose from or you can source your own placement.

Most placements are paid, and we will support you every step of the way.

Find out more about Professional Training placements and discover how these have transformed our students’ lives and career choices.

English Literature and Spanish placements

We believe academic knowledge should be coupled with continuous professional training so that you graduate with a wider range of skills. Our Professional Training placement scheme is one of the main reasons for our very high employment rates.

You can take Professional Training on this course in a work placement or a study period abroad.

In your third year, you’ll have the opportunity to practise and develop your linguistic, intercultural and transferable skills while working and/or studying abroad. Our placement team will help you organise a placement that fits your needs.

The majority of our students spend their third year working abroad, gaining valuable international work experience.

During your first year

The Professional Training placement cycle begins right away in your first year, you’ll learn about the cultures and societies related to your chosen language and practise CV writing and presentation techniques.

During your second year

In the second year, you’ll attend Employability and Placement sessions. This includes one-to-one meetings with an experienced team of placement tutors who can advise you on a placement that suits your abilities, interests and future career plans.

The preparation also includes sessions on CV and cover letter writing, finances while on placement, health and safety in the workplace, insurance, and accommodation, as well as talks by current placement providers, employers or experts in a particular industry.

In the past, guest speakers have included representatives from Hilton Spain and Vifor Pharma Switzerland.

During your placement year

Your Professional Training placement starts when you have secured a work placement or a study exchange. Our students make excellent candidates for placements in areas such as marketing, international relations, sales, PR, translation and even finance.

Some examples of organisations that have participated in this scheme include:

Macmillan Iberia
Terra Consultoria
Hotel Villa Magna
1Global Translators
Hotel Villamagna
Havas Group
King's Group.

If you decide to do a study exchange, you’ll be able to choose from a number of partner universities in Europe.

If you opt to work for all or part of your year abroad (rather than study), you'll receive at least one visit from your placement tutors. The purpose of this unique approach to work placements is to support you in your transition to a new language, a new country and a new work environment.

Your visiting tutors will also assess your performance at work, mediate between you and your placement organisation, and help prepare you for your final year back at university.

At the end of your Professional Training placement, our goal is for you to be able to reflect upon and articulate your experience so that you can discuss it in a future job interview upon graduation.

Applying for placements

Students are generally not placed by the University, however we offer support and guidance throughout the process alongside access to a vacancy portal representing thousands of placement opportunities each year. We also provide support if you wish to source your own placement.

Find out more about the application process.

Please be aware there may be travel costs incurred when attending interviews and assessment centres at the placement provider’s premises.
