Maureen Meikle, Head of Department
The Department of Humanities at Leeds Trinity has a dynamic and innovative team who teach and research English, History, Theology and Religious Studies. We are all student-centred academics who also happen to be prominent researchers. Most of the Humanities staff have PhDs in their subject area and share their research interests with students and colleagues, as well as publishing their work to reach a much wider audience.
Humanities undergraduate degree programmes are designed to stimulate and engage student learning. As we are not a large department, students quickly get to know our academic staff in an atmosphere that is friendly, open and supportive. The placements that we offer our Humanities students are an excellent way of enhancing employability and they facilitate useful networking with both local and national organisations. Our graduates tell us that they have really enjoyed their time studying for a Humanities undergraduate degree at Leeds Trinity University College. If you want to study a stimulating subject that prepares you for life and work, come and study with us!
Ben Hopwood, BA History
Choosing to study at Leeds Trinity was a great decision. There’s a broad range of subjects for every interest, from the French Revolution and Witchcraft to the Credit Crunch and modern day history. The lecturers are engaged and interested; you can’t help but be interested too. Plus with all Leeds’ history there’s plenty of scope for field trips and fun. I’m enjoying my course here at Leeds Trinity and I know you will too.
