Applied Humanities

MA Applied Humanities offers ideal preparation for a range of professional careers in business, education, health, law, and media, as well as preparation for further study in HE. This degree offers transdisciplinary training in critical thinking combined with professional skills and core competencies delivered through the creative and problem-solving approach of the humanities.

Students’ existing knowledge and skills in the humanities, as well as individual cultural backgrounds and life experiences, will be valued and utilised in learning. Students work independently and in collaboration to develop their core skills and position themselves as transformative problem solvers and to cultivate a network of connections for the future.

Why study this course? This MA’s focus on practice, collaboration and project management means it is especially suited to students seeking a competitive edge or to upskill for graduate employment; it is equally suited to students wishing to prepare for a PhD programme in the Humanities.
