With joint honours, you can study for an honours degree in two or even three subjects. Find out more about joint honours.
American Studies
American Studies will help you deepen your understanding and knowledge of the culture, history and society of the USA while providing a range of skills crucial to success, both in university and in the world of work. We'll create a friendly and supportive academic culture in which our enthusiasm, knowledge and active involvement with the subject as teachers and researchers foster an awareness of various issues - such as ethnicity, identity, class, gender, representation and power - that are relevant to both the study of America and your own wider experience of life.

Third World Development
You'll look at patterns of political, socio-economic and environmental change in less developed countries. And you'll get the opportunity to explore major themes, such as the development gap between rich and poor countries, social justice, women's rights, globalisation, democratisation and environmental impacts. Using a range of modern and historical materials, you'll also consider areas such as economics, sociology, history and geography.
