For centuries, both Scottish and Lusophone cultures have had a significant international influence on literature. Today, alongside English, Portuguese is one of the world's ten most widely spoken languages.

This joint honours programme aims to develop your critical, analytic, linguistic and creative skills by engaging with a broad range of texts in English, Scots and Portuguese, and a variety of approaches to reading.

Over the course of your degree, you will explore the relationship between literary texts and the construction of national, international and imperial cultures.

The programme shows an openness to ideas and perspectives other than your own, an essential attribute in many careers and a global marketplace.
