The Bachelor of Arts (Honours) in English and Sport Science combines two exciting and challenging disciplines. Students will spend equal amounts of time studying both English and Sport Science – which makes it the perfect choice should they have an interest in both of these subject areas. Whilst each discipline has its distinctive subjects and approaches, students will also discover productive connections and overlaps between them.
The English component of the English and Sport Science program allows students to explore literature and language within a broad range of fields and approaches, providing a stimulating environment for their studies. The English modules offered on the program grow out of the current research interests and publications of the department's academic staff, making it possible for students to study the latest thinking in areas as diverse as the staging of Shakespeare, film studies and the analysis of poetry.
The sport science element of the English and Sport Science program covers physiology, physical activity and health, psychology, sociology and sport pedagogy, which support a variety of potential careers in sport, health and/or education.
