Interested in more than one subject area? Many of our undergraduate programmes can be combined, so you don’t have to limit yourself to one subject if two interest you.

If you choose to study a Combined Award then in Year One you’ll start by studying both subjects in equal depth. From Year Two you can choose whether to continue with equal numbers of modules from each subject, or whether you want to select additional modules in one or the other. Upon successful completion of the programme you will graduate with a joint degree. 

Which subjects can be combined?

Our prospectus lists which courses can be combined with each other. You can also filter our course listing to find subjects that can be combined.

If you’re looking at courses on our website, you’ll see they’ll be marked with one of the following:

  • Single honours
    These awards cannot be combined.
  • Single or combined honours
    You can combine these subjects with other subjects as part of a combined award. Alternatively if you’d like to study the subject by itself, you can do that instead.
  • Studied as part of a combined award
    These subjects have to be combined with another subject.
  • Combined honours
    Courses marked with ‘combined honours’ indicate that they are a combined course, made of two different subjects.

Which modules can be taken?

The modules you'll take will depend on your course combination as well as any optional or open modules chosen. Please check the programme document (below the main image on the course page) for more information.

What makes our courses unique?

We’ve thought hard about what makes a course special – and we’ve also asked our students for their views. We’ve come up with a framework that offers maximum flexibility, with the chance to work with students from very different subjects – and create really stunning work as a result.

Create your perfect course

All courses are modular in structure, and you’ll have a mixture of compulsory modules and optional ones. This means that you can build up a programme of study to suit your particular interests and career aspirations.
