Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - TU980

A Flexible, Cross‑Disciplinary Degree Starting September 2026

We are delighted to announce that our new Bachelor of Arts (Honours) programme (TU980) will start in September 2026. With Future Skills in mind, this course covers a wide and varied range of subjects across multiple disciplines that will help build skills in creative problem-solving, analytical thinking, adaptability, collaboration, and effective communication. It's designed to be very flexible, allowing students to create their own learning journey by exploring different subjects, both traditional and new.

This is not a typical Arts course. It’s a future ready, four-year programme that lets you mix and match subjects as you explore a broad range of topics and try out new ideas. It will support you in figuring out what you’re passionate about learning as you go, whether that’s media, law, computing, languages, social sciences, or even business or music. You'll benefit from our unique one-to-one advisory support every year, with two guaranteed sessions a year with an academic adviser to help you at every step of your academic journey.

These four years will give you more time to explore different subjects, discover new interests, and develop a range of valuable skills like critical thinking, communication, and problem-solving. Opting for a four-year arts degree over a three-year degree encourages a deeper, more well-rounded education, and better prepares you for a future where jobs are constantly changing. As a graduate you’ll be more adaptable, which will open the door to more career options down the line, even for jobs that don't exist yet!
