Career opportunities

The English Literature / Drama and Theatre Studies degree provides a balance between critical academic approaches and practical experience and a trajectory of increasingly independent work to develop the skills you need to pursue career opportunities in the creative arts and beyond. It opens up opportunities for a career in the creative or performing arts, as well as in publishing and editing, journalism, marketing and communications, library work, arts administration or teaching.

Throughout your course you will develop a wealth of literary, creative and practical skills as well as generic skills that can be easily transferred into almost any graduate or professional employment situation. You will be able to read and evaluate source material, think critically and problem-solve. You will also have proven your abilities in writing for and performing to a range of audiences, working effectively with others, and delivering work in time to meet specific deadlines.

Many students have gone on to work as actors, performers, directors, and designers, either directly, through association with co-operative and professional companies, or after further postgraduate study. Many graduates have also found employment in a variety of different areas including teaching, administration, marketing, management, and public relations.
