PART TIME English Literature and Community Engagement Degree
This unique course offers you a chance to gain an undergraduate degree from the University of Bristol and to share what you are learning in the wider community. Attend one evening a week during term time plus a few Saturday Schools each year.
It combines study of a full range of literature in English, from the medieval period to the present day, with a community engagement element. You will run a reading group or undertake similar work in the community as part of your degree.
This course is taught part time over six years (one evening a week and some Saturday schools) and is aimed primarily at mature students. However, students on this course range widely in age (from those in their 20s to those aged over 70), prior educational experience and background. We encourage applications from those returning to education after a period of time away from studying. Each application will be judged on its own merits.
