Guide to subject entries

In the subject entries, you’ll find information about the department your subject is taught in as well as further information relevant to particular subjects such as field work, study abroad and scholarships. You’ll also find contact details to find out more about the subject and links to our website.

The applicant and entrant figures given in the subject entries are taken from the 2010/11 admissions cycle. For subjects which include Combined Honours degrees, the figures are split across the subjects involved so do not reflect the total number of individual applicants and entrants for all subjects.

Under the programme details we describe the areas you will study. Many programmes also allow you to choose some of your modules from a list of options which means that you can shape your degree to your interests and career plans. Many of the options relate directly to staff research interests and the options available may change from year to year. Programme specifications and a full module list for each degree can be found on the relevant website given under each subject entry.
