This innovative joint honours programme combines two related yet distinct approaches to the study of human cultural expression, past and present. 

Based in the first UNESCO World City of Literature, it is the only full undergraduate programme of its kind in the UK. 

A highlight of the programme is the chance to work with the rich range of materials in the School of Scottish Studies Archives. These include thousands of recordings in Scots, Gaelic, English, and dialects now extinct. 

As well as our fantastic teaching staff, you will benefit from the expertise of our Traditional Artist in Residence and two Writers in Residence - one in Gaelic, and one in English Literature. 

On this programme, you will gain the practical and intellectual skills to handle and interpret traditional resources, modern media and digital data. 

Combining literature with ethnology shows an openness to ideas and perspectives other than your own, an essential attribute in many careers and a global marketplace.
