American Studies allows you to understand the United States from literary and historical perspectives, by exploring great novels, movies, photographs and paintings, or historical documents and the nation’s defining historical events. You will get to grips with race, gender and civil liberties in America, consider its urban cityscapes and the landscapes of the wilderness, and delve into anything from popular culture to the counterculture and the avant garde.
Students on a four-year programme spend their third year studying in America or Canada, and have the option of spending a semester in Australia, New Zealand, or Hong Kong.
During your final year, you write a dissertation on a topic of your choice, guided by a supervisor, taking an interdisciplinary approach or specializing in American history or literature.
