English and History - University of Sussex

**About the course** Explore how literature and history have shaped our culture and society. You investigate literature in diverse historical, political and cultural contexts. You'll engage with historical evidence of international interest in our special collections. These include the papers of Virginia Woolf and Rudyard Kipling, and the Mass Observation Archive, housed at The Keep, a state-of-the-art archive conservation building located next to the Sussex campus. You're taught by literary experts and historians working in the field. You're encouraged to shape your study and produce your own critical and creative response to the world we live in today. **About Sussex** Sussex graduates change the world. Our students become the leaders of the future, making discoveries, improving lives and changing things for the better. Study with us to join a welcoming and inspiring community of staff and students from more than 140 countries. **Location** We shape the world from a fantastic campus on the UK’s beautiful south coast. We are the only UK university surrounded by a national park, so you can step off campus to explore the hills and woodlands of the South Downs. The vibrant, colourful and creative seaside city of Brighton & Hove is just nine minutes away. With Brighton voted the happiest city in England for students, (Student Living Survey, Sodexo, 2018) there can be few better places to study.
