BA Joint Hons English & History
We'll show you how exciting and wide-ranging our subject can be. Employers like the skills developed in an English degree: written and verbal communication, analysis and discussion of ideas, and broad, creative thinking.
Studying history – the story of humanity through the ages – develops your knowledge of the past and gives you a better understanding of the present.
Throughout your studies, you'll receive excellent training in areas such as problem-solving, communication, research methods and interpretation.
Our classes cover some of the most important and interesting historical periods at home and abroad, including Scotland’s ‘Highland Problem’ in the 16th century, Slavery in World History and Cold War Europe, 1945-1991.

Job Opportunity Potential
Graduate employers not only ask for a degree qualification, they expect job applicants to bring a range of skills that they have gained outside of their studies, e.g. through work experience, volunteering, part-time jobs. Strathclyde University Careers Service will be happy to help you to prepare for your future graduate career once you become a member of Strathclyde University.
At some stage we all make choices about the career path we will follow. We can help you with this process if:
- You are unsure where to start,
- You have no idea of the career that would suit you,
- You have some vague ideas but need support to think them through,
- You need help finding more information
It is never too early to start thinking about your future career. We're happy to work with you from first year, throughout your degree and beyond graduation - at whatever stage you’ve reached in your thinking.
Choosing My Career
A great place to start is with our interactive online course Choosing My Career. It will help you make it a conscious and thoughtful decision, giving you the best chance of choosing a career path that suits your personality, skills and strengths.
