EAP helps you to achieve the appropriate functional and academic English that you require to succeed at university.
Pre-sessional programmes
In-sessional support
Pre-sessional programmes give you the head start you need to succeed on your subsequent degree programme – depending on your English language ability you may be on a shorter or longer programme. The weekly timetable covers classes on EAP, as well as lectures and seminars on various subjects delivered by lecturers from different faculties across the University, and tutorials. This helps you become familiar with the expectations of studying a degree at Winchester. Succeeding on a pre-sessional programme means you are better prepared for your degree studies. Please visit our website for the programme fee.
This support pairs you with a professional language teacher who works with you to help set and achieve your goals, both improving your academic performance as well as developing your abilities in English. You work in conjunction with your language teacher to establish your language needs and develop a plan to support your academic English development. In-sessional support is a student-led service that offers on-task support for your degree programme. This service is free when you enrol at the University as a student.

Money matters At Winchester we help guide you through the process of how much university will cost. Going to university is a real investment in your future and there is financial support available to students for both tuition fees and living expenses. Tuition fees and financial support for Home (UK)/EU students We set our tuition fees at a level that makes sure you receive a degree experience which is high quality and distinctive, with first-rate facilities. We are committed to continual development of the student experience. At the time of print, the tuition fees for 2018 entry are still subject to approval by the University of Winchester Board of Governors. The costs for 2017 entry for a BA/BSc/LLB (Hons) degree: • £9,250 per year (full-time) • £1,156 per 15 credit module (part-time) – the maximum part-time fee charged in a given year will not exceed the Government permitted rate of £6,750 (maximum 90 credits) • £700 for placement year (where applicable) Our 2018 tuition fees will be published on our website as soon as details are confirmed. The 2017 tuition fees are stated on each course page (pages 42-191).
Tuition fee loans Most full-time UK and EU undergraduate students are eligible to apply for a Government loan to cover your tuition fees. Further details can be found at www.winchester.ac.uk/studentsandmoney The Government part-time funding package is yet to be announced for 2018. However, in 2017 all eligible part-time undergraduates who study for at least 25 per cent of the
full-time equivalent course are able to apply for a loan to cover the costs of your tuition, which means you no longer have to pay up front.
Finance. As with the tuition fee loan, you only start to repay the maintenance loan after you have graduated and are earning at least £21,000.
Tuition fee payment
Part-time students are not eligible for a maintenance loan.
Student Finance notifies you if you have been approved for a tuition fee loan and will pay the University direct. If you do not have a tuition fee loan from Student Finance, or if you only have a partial loan, you need to pay fees directly to the University. Payment terms vary according to your mode of study and your start dates. Find out more at www.winchester.ac.uk/studentsandmoney Full-time UK/EU undergraduate students only begin to repay the Government tuition fee loan once they have graduated and are earning £21,000 or more. The amount you pay back per month depends on the amount you earn. This is currently 9 per cent of your income above £21,000 so, for example, if you earn £25,000 you will repay about £30 per month (based on 2017 entry figures).
Channel Islands and Isle of Man students Please be aware that students from the Islands are not eligible for student loans from the UK Government or for bursaries, fee waivers or scholarships from the University, with the exception of the Academic Achievement Award (see page 27). You should apply to the Islands for financial support.

In addition to gaining valuable skills and being able to contribute to research outputs, you receive a bursary for your work.
Student Panel Members THE UNIVERSITY OF WINCHESTER
The Student Listeners Scheme is a peer support programme where you are trained in listening and helping skills by our qualified professionals here at the University, so you can provide one-to-one informal and confidential support. As a student yourself, you understand what it is like to be a student here at Winchester and you may have faced the same concerns.
The Student Academic Representatives (StARS) scheme allows you to be the voice of your cohort and represent fellow students at Programme Committee Meetings. To ensure the student voice is heard, you are invited to give feedback about the course so improvements can be incorporated. The Student Union provides training on how to be the voice of your cohort and there are many opportunities to put your skills to good use throughout your time as a Student Academic Rep.
Being a Student Panel Member enables you to be a part of official University procedures. Each programme undergoes a periodic revalidation process, and you have the opportunity to be on the panel that makes the validating/revalidating decision. Revalidation events take place to ensure that programmes are meeting national standards and maintaining good teaching, as well as ensuring the student experience is the best it can be. This is a paid opportunity.
Winchester Student Union offers many opportunities for you to volunteer. You could be a part of Freshers Crew who welcome new students upon arrival; be a part of the Student Union’s Big Tidy Up litter pick in the community; or fundraise for charity through the Student Union’s Raising and Giving events. The positions of Student Academic Rep and Student Listener are also voluntary.

Ancient, Classical and Medieval Studies BA (Hons)
IN ENGLAND FOR STUDENT SATISFACTION †
Ancient, Classical and Medieval Studies at Winchester focuses on the history and archaeology of ancient, classical and medieval Britain, Europe, the Mediterranean and the Atlantic. The programme builds on our established strengths in the ancient and medieval, both in history and archaeology. Course overview You study topics as diverse as Bronze Age civilisations; Classical Rome; the Anglo-Saxon era; Vikings, Normans and Charlemagne’s Empire; the Crusades; the Age of Discovery; and Late Medieval England and France. The programme trains you in the disciplines of both archaeology and history, enabling you to pursue careers in either subject. Modules in Year 1 provide a sound understanding of each discipline, the methodology of each subject and its applications. Analysis of documentary or excavated evidence helps to promote a good grasp of archaeological techniques, historical approaches, chronological time periods and, in particular, the importance of teamwork, personal research and presentation skills. Year 2 is more wide-ranging, offering a series of optional modules where you can select to study a variety of diverse topics or choose a focused selection of modules that follow a particular theme. Study in Year 2 aims to hone your skills in presentation and fieldwork. In Year 3, you select a limited number of topics at a more concentrated and advanced level and typically study through extensive use of primary source material, applying all you have mastered in the dissertation. Fieldwork If you are interested in the archaeological dimension of the programme, you can opt to
attend the summer training excavation for two weeks during the first summer vacation and should ensure that you have accommodation available during late May and June.

Course overview Our FdA Childhood Studies courses offer a flexible programme of study for those in employment, so you may ‘earn while you learn’. The overall aim is to foster a reflective approach to the knowledge, understanding and skills which underpin work with young children. The view taken of the child is holistic and there is an emphasis on children’s social and emotional development. Study requires you to engage with a wide range of relevant academic knowledge combined with its application in practical settings. The programme takes an inclusive, positive and individualised approach to fostering children’s development. The Distance Learning route is ideal for those who live and work some distance away, where travelling into Winchester regularly may be difficult.

If you study the FdA Childhood Studies at the University, you will benefit from regular seminar-style sessions where interaction with lecturers and other students provides a supportive and dynamic learning environment.
If you study the Distance Learning FdA, you will benefit from twilight e-seminars with lecturers and other students, providing support and social interaction in an innovative environment. Sessions are generally not scheduled during school holidays to help you balance work, study and family commitments. You study five modules in Year 1 (Level 4) and five in Year 2 (Level 5). Each year there is a double work-based module, highlighting links between theory and practice.

Ellie Moorfield BA (HONS) CHILDHOOD, YOUTH AND COMMUNITY STUDIES “I knew I wanted to work with children and chose this course as it has a broad focus, enabling me to pursue a variety of career options later on. We explore working with children and young adults between the ages 0-19 years, so there is a range of opportunities across different age groups. Each module is fulfilling and the lecturers are incredibly knowledgeable. “We have visited Winnall Moors Nature Reserve and Winchester Cathedral to explore different environments that may aid child development, interaction and learning. This helps us become more innovative and creative when working with children and young people. “In my second year, as part of the optional Volunteering module, I undertook a brief placement with a playscheme that provides respite care for children with disabilities and their families in the summer holidays. This provided valuable first-hand experience in this field and boosted my CV and skill set. I’ve found the preparation for life after university really beneficial, particularly the Careers Service sessions on topics such as searching for jobs, how to write a great CV and interview practice.”

Meg Finlayson BA (HONS) CLASSICAL STUDIES “I realised I had a passion for Classical Studies at A level so wanted to pursue studies at university. “This course is great as it offers a rounded approach to explore how the world interacts, and we have considered the Persians and Spartans as well as Romans, Greeks and Egyptians. “It isn’t just a case of looking at text and literature either; we take a hands-on approach with the study of archaeology to build our understanding and enrich learning. We have taken trips to the British Museum where we viewed the artefacts linked to our study – it really brings a new dimension when what you have been studying in class is there in front of you. “I am fascinated by the world of Alexander the Great so hope to specialise in this area. I am excited to undertake research to contribute to this field, and hope to inspire others to love it as much as I do!”

Comedy: Performance and Production BA (Hons)
Comedy: Performance and Production at Winchester develops your knowledge, skills and experience in the field of comedy within the performing arts, across a broad spectrum of media and contexts. Course overview Comedy: Performance and Production at Winchester offers a highly practical, dynamic and exciting programme which has its fingertips on the pulse of today’s comedy. The programme explores the exciting variety of comedy forms – from Shakespeare to stand-up, from clowning to comedy writing, and includes studying the history and theory of comedy. You focus on both group and solo comedy and study a broad range of comedy genres. To help you reach your goals, we have state-of-the-art studio, rehearsal and performance spaces and visiting professionals give practical workshops and talks. Techniques and strategies are developed for a range of comedy practice including solo and ensemble performances, stand-up, improvisation, clowning and physical comedy. You work in groups to create original comedy performances and sketches, and develop your own characters within them. The performance or recording and editing of work for audiences constitute the practical elements of the course. In Year 1, you are introduced to a full range of practical performance skills and knowledge of the history and context of comedy. You spend more than half your time creating group and solo performances, and the rest of the time discussing and writing about comedy from an analytical and historical perspective.
In Year 2, you study a number of different critical and reflective methodologies in viewing, analysing and creating comedy. You create a stand-up performance and experiment with a range of popular forms of comedy – for example, variety, clowning, commedia dell’arte and circus. You can choose from a range of optional modules designed to encourage you to develop and pursue your own interests within the broad field of comedy. The final part of Year 3 entails the Extended Independent Study which you can present as a performance, a dissertation of 8,000-10,000 words, or a shorter dissertation with a practical performance.

Computer Aided Design BSc (Hons) Computer Aided Design at Winchester is a practical programme of study that allows you to develop into imaginative designers with a good level of technical computer aided design (CAD) understanding. There is an emphasis on teamwork and collaboration that mimics industrial practice. Course overview Throughout the programme you develop the ability to understand the imperatives of designing for the design industries in terms of the user experience, incorporating look, feel, narrative and aesthetic qualities from the user’s perspective. You become technologically aware designers, understanding the operation and techniques which a range of software packages make available. In this way designs can be tailored, helping you to work effectively with these packages and developing confidence in creating, modelling and showing new ideas within a production team. You are also encouraged to challenge current design practices and styles in order to develop your own personal approach to design informed by, and responding to, the latest ideas. Year 1 is based around the design and development of CAD and drafting skills, ergonomics and human interaction. You undertake two intense six-week projects designed to promote short, sharp research and concept design through to prototypes, mirroring industry practice. In addition, you develop a confidence and competence in the use of the key technologies and tools which enable the realisation of design concepts and prototypes. In Year 2, you develop practice in computer aided design. There is also an emphasis on client-based projects to give you experience of working on live projects, and an individual award based project for example the RSA or D&D awards.
In Year 3, you continue in your specialist area whilst being given the opportunity to study business practice within the design industry. You are required to undertake two major projects, at least one of which is normally expected to be conducted with an industry partner as a placement. You will leave the programme with a fully interactive online portfolio of work to showcase your achievements in a dynamic way to any future employer.

Creative Writing BA (Hons)
RE
Creative Writing at Winchester is a practice-based discipline with workshops designed to encourage you to evolve as a writer in new and individual ways. Course overview This course encourages you to see writing of all kinds in relation to wider literary, cultural and professional contexts. We want you to become the best writer you can be, whether that be creating novels, poems or scripts, feature articles and travel writing, museum exhibitions and biographies, or reports or copywriting. Whichever genre you feel most comfortable with, the most important thing is that you demonstrate a high level of technical skill, an aptitude for expressing yourself through writing, and a commitment to hard work and personal development. The programme enhances your skills as an evolving writer at your own pace and in your own way, showing you how your work relates to the wider realms of literary and cultural context. The course seeks to move you progressively through a structured series of writing assignments and exercises, working on all genres of writing in the first year, and then allowing you to specialise in Years 2 and 3. Your work develops with the aid of positive critical encouragement and direction throughout. This is enhanced by a workshop environment which helps you form a critical understanding of your own writing and the writing of others. Guidance is given on audience (for example editor, agent or publisher) where appropriate. In Year 2, the focus becomes more specific with modules that concentrate on elements of different genres such as writing for children, media writing, poetry, song and play, film and TV script.
In Year 3, the modules look increasingly at the relationships between writing and the world beyond the University, exploring publishing, producing, community audiences, writing and teaching.

Anton Griffiths BA (HONS) CREATIVE WRITING “Winchester is located in the most beautiful surroundings – I love having the countryside on my doorstep – and it offered a course that really interested me. “I am passionate about film, theatre and poetry so wanted to study a course that encompassed all three – Creative Writing does just that. I have the chance to write in all these styles and more, and freedom of expression is encouraged. “Visiting guest lecturers offer a range of cultural perspectives on writing. Malika Booker, a British poet, performer and playwright of Grenadian and Guyanese heritage, talked us through her writing style – it was fascinating to see her culture come through in her poems. “My favourite module was Poetry which helped broaden my knowledge and gave me the opportunity to explore different styles, break taboos in writing and investigate the past views of rhymes. “As part of the course we visited the New Forest to explore writing about the environment. It is an amazing place to encourage inspiration in any type of writing; it was peaceful walking around the woodland and really nurtured my creativity.”

Creative Writing and Drama BA (Hons) Creative Writing and Drama at Winchester allows you to extend your understanding of how to create texts while further considering how those skills might form part of a performance process leading to a variety of interdisciplinary outcomes or productions. Course overview This practice-based course offers workshops designed to encourage you to evolve as writers in new and individual ways and approach writing in relation to wider literary and cultural contexts. Drama complements this by exploring theories and practical approaches in relation to performance which allows you to develop your creative ideas through practice in industry or community contexts. The Drama elements have a contemporary focus but review the histories and traditions of theatre and performance, and interrogate what is meant by these in the twenty-first century. You are encouraged to think critically to inform theatremaking skills and explore the extent to which drama is a tool for social change. In Year 1, you write in a number of different mediums, genres and styles whilst gaining insights into the history of drama, the context in which dramatic production has taken place, how to make theatre, the political underpinning of texts and practices, and the ways in which texts and performances are viewed and interpreted.

Creative Writing and English Literature BA (Hons) Creative Writing and English Literature at Winchester introduces you to a practice-based and study-based understanding of how literary texts work through an engagement with writing in comparable genres and an exploration of literary history, theory and culture. Course overview Creative Writing enhances your evolving writing skills at your own pace and in your own way, while showing you how your work relates to the wider realms of literary and cultural context. In English Literature, study is wide-ranging and includes modern and traditional literature, cultural study and critical analysis, Shakespeare and rap poetry. You move progressively through a structured series of writing assignments and exercises, working on all genres of writing in Year 1 and specialising in Years 2 and 3. You receive positive critical encouragement and direction throughout. This is enhanced by a workshop environment which helps you form a critical understanding of your own writing and the writing of others. The English Literature elements in the first year provide an awareness of the range of different approaches to understanding texts and develop skills of critical analysis, research and writing. This is achieved through the study of an assortment of texts from various periods in history across the genres of prose fiction, poetry and drama. In Year 2, the focus becomes more specific with modules that look at elements of different genres such as writing for children, media writing, poetry, song and play, film and TV script. English Literature modules involve studying of a group of texts representative of a period of history, a particular genre or a particular area of the world. In Year 3, the modules look increasingly at the relationships between writing and the world beyond the University – looking at publishing, producing, community audiences, writing and teaching – and a specific collection of writings, a
particular theme or critical theory is considered in detail. Modules tend to be closely related to the research interests of teaching staff and engage with cutting-edge developments in the discipline.

Drama BA (Hons) Drama at Winchester is an exciting and innovative programme that studies theory, performance and production skills – it offers an equal balance between theory and practice. Course overview The course has a contemporary focus but reviews the histories and traditions of theatre and performance, and interrogates what is meant by these in the twenty-first century. The extent to which drama is a tool for social change, and how it can be used within the educational system to enhance learning, can be explored. Throughout the programme, you continually develop your critical thinking to inform theatre-making skills. There is an emphasis on text-based approaches to staging and devising theatre, along with approaches to applied and community drama. Each approach is explored in relation to various theories including theatre histories, social and cultural perspectives, major movements and theatre practitioners. Year 1 offers introductory modules in the theory and practice of drama. You gain insights into the history of drama, the context in which dramatic production has taken place, how to make theatre, the political underpinning of texts and practices, and the ways in which texts and performances are viewed and interpreted. In Year 2, you extend your practical and critical skills. The theories and practices that underpin the development of drama are explored alongside practical aspects, and you are able to construct an experience of your own from a range of programme specific modules. In Year 3, you emerge as independent learners. The Group Project allows you to create small companies
to make a major performance or develop an applied/Theatre in Education project. You also elect a specialist option focused on staff research interests. This programme enjoys a variety of relationships with external partners including the Theatre Royal Winchester, The Point in Eastleigh, The Nuffield in Southampton and Anvil Arts in Basingstoke. We also work closely with a number of associate and graduate companies including Platform4, Forest Forge, Wet Picnic, The River People, ShadyJane, Two Destination Language and many more award-winning makers of contemporary theatre. The opportunity to engage with current artists and venues is at the heart of the experience we offer.

Drama and English Literature BA (Hons) Drama and English Literature at Winchester introduces you to an understanding of how literary texts work through a deep engagement with and exploration of literary history, theory and culture. Course overview The course introduces a breadth of study that includes modern and traditional literature, cultural study and critical analysis, Shakespeare and rap poetry. The study of non-performative texts alongside an appreciation of performance allows you the chance to think about how literary influences help to shape today’s theatre, and how to adapt literary texts for theatrical production. In Year 1, English Literature elements provide an awareness of the range of different approaches to understanding texts and develop skills of critical analysis, research and writing. This is achieved through the study of an assortment of texts from various periods in history across the genres of prose fiction, poetry and drama. Drama modules in Year 1 provide you with insights into the history of drama, the context in which dramatic production has taken place, how to make theatre, the political underpinning of texts and practices, and the ways in which texts and performances are viewed and interpreted. In Year 2, modules involve study of a group of texts representative of a period of history, a particular genre or a particular area of the world. The theories and practices that underpin the development of drama are explored, alongside practical aspects of performance. In Year 3, a specific collection of writings, a particular theme or critical theory is considered in detail. Modules here tend to be closely related to the research interests of teaching staff and engage with cutting-edge developments in the discipline. The Drama Group Project allows you
to create small companies to make a major performance or develop an applied/Theatre-inEducation project.

Education Studies BA (Hons)
STUDENT SATISFACTION†
Education Studies at Winchester specialises in looking at educational themes, ideas and practices in the widest possible sense through educational theories and philosophies. You explore a range of contexts from the classroom and the learner’s experience through to education as a lever for social and political change. Theoretical perspectives are drawn from themes which include gender, citizenship, representation, childhood, technology, truth and power. Course overview The Education Studies programme is both a rigorous academic degree and an excellent preparation for those who wish to take a PGCE. It not only examines educational practice in the context of classroom practice and current policy but also in its historical, sociological, cultural, political and philosophical contexts. Consequently, the programme offers a means of engaging with educational theory from ancient Greece to the present. These perspectives are examined in such ways as to enable you to think deeply not only about developments in educational theory, but also about the changes in ideas concerned with family life; appropriate ways about caring for others; expectations of educational provision; and ideas about who we are and how we should relate to others in the world. This programme is fundamentally based in texts and theory – there is no required practical component. However, you may wish to select an optional Volunteering module in your second year of full-time study which allows you to accredit academic reflection on a self-arranged placement.
• Educators and Society • Political Perspectives on Education • Introducing Early Childhood • Learning from the Renaissance • Educators and Schooling • Principles in Inclusive Education Year 2 • Education: Social and Political Thought • Education: Ethics and Political Thought • You may choose from a range of optional modules (for full list, visit www.winchester.ac.uk/X300) Year 3 • Dissertation/Extended Independent Study • You may choose from a range of optional modules (for full list, visit www.winchester.ac.uk/X300)

Innocent Otunnu BA (HONS) EDUCATION STUDIES “I am really enjoying my studies here at Winchester – I feel that this degree has challenged and stretched my abilities both personally and professionally, allowing me to gain a broader understanding of education as a whole. The course not only covers aspects of teaching and learning, but importantly covers the historic trajectory of theoretical concepts, philosophies and educational acts and legislations that are informing education today. “In my second year, I had the opportunity to undertake the Volunteering module. I chose to work for the family support charity Home-Start. This experience not only enhanced my employability skills, but also enabled me to make a difference in the lives of the young children and families I worked with, while gaining transferable practical experience. “As a mature student and parent there were occasions where studying was a challenge. However, I always felt supported by the University and my lecturers. As a student at Winchester I feel that I have a voice and that I matter; it is refreshing to be in an environment where your lecturers are so passionate about their teaching and your learning. “There is also a Commuters Lounge on campus, which I found to be really helpful, particularly between lectures. It is a welcoming and quiet space to work in, where you can meet fellow commuters. It is well facilitated with lockers, computers, a printer, it also has a kitchen area which has a microwave and fridge, all of which are very useful.”

Education Studies and Drama BA (Hons) Education Studies and Drama offers you the opportunity to combine a deeper understanding of teaching and facilitation with the subject-specific skills of Drama. Course overview Education Studies at Winchester specialises in looking at educational themes, ideas and practices in the widest possible sense through educational theories and philosophies. You explore a range of contexts from the classroom and the learner’s experience through to education as a lever for social and political change. Theoretical perspectives are drawn from themes which include gender, citizenship, representation, truth, power, childhood and inclusion. Modern, philosophical, cultural, social, psychological and historical perspectives are all used as analytical tools to help examine educational debates and a wide variety of educational themes and concepts. You interrogate the educational process as a whole and seek answers to questions about the purpose, value, misuse and difficulties of education and learning. Complementing this, Drama has a contemporary focus but reviews the histories and traditions of theatre and performance, and interrogates what is meant by these in the twenty-first century. The extent to which drama is a tool for social change, and how it can be used within the educational system to enhance learning, can be explored. Approaches to staging, devising theatre, and applied and community drama are explored in relation to various theories including theatre histories, social and cultural perspectives, major movements and theatre practitioners. In Year 1, Education Studies modules introduce you to a wide range of educational themes, concepts, ideas and issues. Drama modules offer you insight into the history of drama, the context in which dramatic production
has taken place, how to make theatre, the political underpinning of texts and practices, and the ways in which texts and performances are viewed and interpreted. In Years 2 and 3, Education Studies modules develop your knowledge of a variety of educational theories and perspectives to enable you to apply a range of concepts, ideas and theoretical perspectives as tools for critical analysis and application to practice. Drama modules extend your practical and critical skills leading you to emerge as independent learners. The Group Project allows you to create small companies to make a major performance or develop an applied Theatre-in-Education project. You may also elect a specialist option focused on staff research interests.
Graduates work as teachers, education officers in theatres and venues or as practitioners working in theatre, Theatre-in-Education, community drama, applied contexts and drama therapy.

Education Studies and English Literature BA (Hons) Education Studies and English Literature at Winchester specialises in looking at educational themes, ideas and practices through educational theories and philosophies, alongside a study of how literary texts work through a deep exploration of literary history, theory and culture. Course overview You explore a range of contexts from the classroom and the learner’s experience through to education as a lever for social and political change. Theoretical perspectives are drawn from themes which include gender, citizenship, representation, truth, power, childhood and inclusion, as well as by studying the ideas of the most exciting critical thinkers in contemporary cultural debate. Study in English Literature is wide-ranging and includes modern and traditional literature, cultural study and critical analysis, Shakespeare and rap poetry. Modern, philosophical, cultural, social, psychological and historical perspectives are all used as analytical tools to help examine educational debates and a wide variety of educational themes and concepts. You interrogate the educational process as a whole and seek answers to questions about the purpose, value, misuse and difficulties of education and learning. English Literature modules in Year 1 provide an awareness of the range of different approaches to understanding texts to develop skills of critical analysis, research and writing. Education Studies modules introduce you to a broad range of educational themes, concepts, contexts and experiences. In Year 2, Education Studies modules focus on developing a deep and meaningful understanding of educational principles, concepts and ideas in readiness for their critical application to a range of contexts, practices and real life situations in Year 3. In Years 2 and 3, English Literature modules involve studying a group of texts representative of a period of
history, a particular genre or a particular area of the world ranging from Anglo-Saxon to the contemporary. Modules tend to be closely related to the research interests of teaching staff and engage with cutting-edge developments in the disciplines.

You explore a range of contexts relevant to education and to working with young people whilst also considering education as a lever for social and political change. Course overview This programme not only examines education in the context of classroom practice, current policy and a range of real life settings but also in its historical, sociological, cultural, political and philosophical contexts.

It also develops a holistic understanding of the knowledge and skills needed for multidisciplinary team working in a range of communities and work settings. You engage with a range of theoretical perspectives from ancient Greece to the present.

Research, enquiry and the development of your critical thinking skills are central to this
programme.

English Literature with Creative Writing BA (Hons) English Literature with Creative Writing at Winchester introduces you to a study-based and practical understanding of how literature works through an exploration of literary history, theory and culture and engagement with writing in comparable genres. Course overview In English Literature, study is wide-ranging and includes modern and traditional literature, cultural study and critical analysis, Shakespeare and rap poetry. The Creative Writing elements of the programme enhance your skills at your own pace and in your own way, all the while showing you how your work relates to the wider realms of literary and cultural context. The English Literature elements in the first year provide an awareness of the range of different approaches to understanding texts and develop skills of critical analysis, research and writing. This is achieved through the study of an assortment of texts from various periods in history across the genres of prose fiction, poetry and drama. In Year 2, the focus becomes more specific with modules that look at elements of different genres such as writing for children, media writing, poetry, song and play, film and TV script. English Literature modules involve studying a group of texts representative of a period of history, a particular genre or a particular area of the world. In Year 3, the modules increasingly look at the relationships between writing and the world beyond the University – looking at publishing, producing, community audiences, writing and teaching – and a specific collection of writings, a particular theme or critical theory is considered in detail. Modules tend to be closely related to the research interests of teaching staff and engage with cutting-edge developments in the discipline. In the Creative Writing modules, you move progressively through a structured series of writing assignments and exercises, enhanced by
a workshop environment that will form a critical understanding of your own writing and the writing of others.

Mandip Kaur BA (HONS) EVENT MANAGEMENT “Successful event management can lead to a great sense of achievement – especially when you make a positive impact and contribute in some small way to a big event in someone’s life – and I love celebrations! “I’ve enjoyed exploring different areas from planning the event to marketing, to on-the-day administration. The mix of event and business modules means I have developed a wide skill set and all-round knowledge. “My favourite module was MICE (Meetings, Incentive Travel, Conferences and Exhibitions) where we gained practical industry experience hosting our own event. I devised and managed an event from start to finish enabling me to utilise the range of skills I developed. I also put my skills to use by volunteering at the city’s Easter Extravaganza for children and the Santa Fun Run. “Alongside my studies I became a Student Rep, working on behalf of my peers to develop the course. I found this experience beneficial and it allowed me to further practise negotiating. I helped improve the course for the next cohort which is an amazing feeling – it’s exciting to see the positive changes you are making.”

You acquire skills in the aesthetic and technological processes of directing, producing, screenwriting, editing, cinematography and sound. Course overview The programme offers creative production skills and aesthetic knowledge on filmmaking practices and process congruent with the film industry.

Film Studies BA (Hons) Film Studies at Winchester examines film from mainstream filmmaking to various alternative practices, covering fiction and documentary traditions, and thematic studies. It includes American, European and global perspectives on film and film culture, whilst investigating the subject of film historically, culturally and in terms of its industrial and institutional determination. The programme offers a broadly interdisciplinary approach linking theory and analytical perspectives to practice, competences, attributes and skills. Course overview The programme is built on the acquisition of key skills and relevant subject knowledge through a wide range of modules, including some that are practically orientated to provide an alternative but complementary means of exploring critical and theoretical issues. Year 1 is foundational and involves core modules that introduce you to ideas and ways of working to enable you to build on your prior learning and begin to develop an understanding of the diversity of film studies and cinema. Study during Year 2 is more specialised and there are some core modules that focus study on theoretical and research skills. However, the majority of study in Years 2 and 3 involves optional modules that allow you to focus your study on areas that interest you. Year 3 offers greater scope for more in-depth study and further specialisation. With the exception of the Dissertation, module choices during the final year are entirely optional. Within this structure of options, you may specialise in particular areas of film or choose to take modules that reflect the wide range of film forms and traditions that exist. For example, you may specialise in theoretical studies of film or focus on the development of national cinemas. There are also modules in practical film techniques and skills. Developing a critical and analytical engagement in the academic study of film, both as a
single subject and with an awareness of its convergence with other subject areas and within the developing creative industries sector, is fundamental to the programme. You are equipped with the skills and abilities that enable long-term professional development and career aspirations, and a high level of criticality with respect to information and its use.

Laurence Nealon BA (HONS) FILM STUDIES “I chose Film Studies as I wanted to focus on films at an academic level rather than just the production element and I have found it is even more fulfilling than studying at A level. “This is a fascinating course which builds our understanding of film mediums and the art of film-making. Challenging as well as fulfilling, it has given me greater confidence in debating freely. I also feel I benefit from smaller class sizes, something I had during my entire educational career here, which meant I had a more personalised learning experience. “We have weekly screenings and easy access to the films we are studying. There is a lot of freedom in what we cover in our optional modules; this does not just include the history of Hollywood but also how representations of the male body have changed over time, the history of low-budget B-movies and whether animation can truly be accepted as a mode of cinema. “I’ve loved studying here at the University and cannot wait to put what I have learnt into practice, perhaps working in archiving or social history. I have also considered doing an MA, either in film or a move into cultural studies.”

Forensic Studies BA (Hons)
Forensic Studies at Winchester enables you to engage with the key issues surrounding forensic detection methods and their application to a wide range of investigations into the problems presented by crime. Course overview Forensic methods are a vital part of the criminal justice process, with many agencies relying on forensic detection to help solve a range of problems. The programme also combines elements of criminology, psychology and archaeology to introduce you to a wide range of applied investigative techniques, grounded in both classic and contemporary theoretical perspectives. The programme develops your ability to employ the research and analytical skills necessary to critically evaluate social and institutional contexts and differentiate between the theory and practice of forensic science. You gain experience of making and presenting arguments, understand how to collect data to answer research questions and learn the conventions associated with good academic practice. The development of excellent written and oral communication skills is embedded throughout via a variety of learning, teaching and assessment methods. Subject areas include techniques of forensic investigation, miscarriages of justice in the criminal justice system and forensic psychology. The programme begins by introducing you to the broad scope of forensic science practice, the development of scientific method and theoretical perspectives that are used to understand crime and offenders. As you progress through the programme, you encounter increasingly specialised areas of practice that engage forensic scientists. In your final year, you undertake your own research project in the form of your dissertation.
In Year 1, you are introduced to the core conceptual, theoretical, ethical and practical debates within forensic studies and build the foundation of core skills to enable you to engage with Years 2 and 3. The second year of the programme introduces specific forensic science practices, such as DNA analysis, in more detail and teaches you about key forensic roles, such as forensic anthropology, odontology and the role of forensic medical examiners. In the final year, you appreciate the complexities involved in collecting and presenting forensic evidence through a series of practical activities. Practical sessions complement this theoretical focus, allowing you to engage with particular forensic techniques. You come to understand forensics as an interdisciplinary field where several subject areas converge to create a dynamic area of study.
Core modules† Year 1 • Introduction to Forensic Science • Academic and Employment Skills • History of Forensic Science • Introduction to Criminology 1: Perceptions and Perspectives • Trace Evidence • Forensic Biology • Police and Police Work • Key Thinkers and Themes in Conceptualising Crime Year 2 • Forensic Medicine • Forensic DNA Evidence • Crime Media and Culture

Rhianna Williams BSC (HONS) HEALTH, COMMUNITY AND SOCIAL CARE STUDIES “As a young carer it was important to me to study at a university where support was available. The University of Winchester has been really supportive – I received a bursary and have welcomed the encouragement to progress and reach my full potential. “I was drawn to this course as it offered a broad curriculum which could lead to a variety of potential career paths. I’ve gained different skills across a range of modules which has helped me to understand the bigger picture within the sector. “One of my favourite modules was Understanding Intellectual and Neurodevelopmental Disabilities; I really enjoyed learning about brain development as well as trial development as it blends my personal knowledge of the health community to a more scientific approach. Policy and Politics was also really interesting as it enabled me to keep up-to-date with what is going on in social care and the political challenges faced. “There are lots of opportunities at Winchester. Not only are there student societies – I belong to the Hockey and Polo teams – but I’ve also relished the opportunity to become a Higher Education Ambassador and join the Student Fellows Scheme. From driving improvements to sharing my experiences with potential students, letting them know how great Winchester is, I feel I can give something back to the University.”

Law LLB (Hons)
Law affects all aspects of life and society and is the mechanism for change employed by governments across the globe. From the protection of life and liberty, through corporate law to international relations, the law is centre stage. This programme is ideal if you are interested in becoming a practising solicitor or barrister, and for those seeking more wideranging careers in both the public and private sectors. Throughout the programme, you have numerous opportunities for developing vital skills such as legal research, negotiation and mooting. Mooting (presenting a legal argument) in particular brings law alive and enables you to research a case and construct an argument to defeat an opponent. These skills are invaluable as teaching techniques to help develop successful law graduates. The emphasis on skills-based learning is a core component of the programme and forms a key element in the assessment pattern. You are assessed through traditional examination methods to a minimal extent and the programme aims to give equal and appropriate emphasis to skills-based assessments. If you intend to qualify as a solicitor or barrister, you have to complete an academic stage of training before going on to a vocational stage. All law degrees recognised by the Law Society and the Bar Council (known as Qualifying Law Degrees) involve the study of seven key subjects
– the ‘Foundations of Legal Knowledge’. This LLB is a Qualifying Law Degree recognised by the Solicitors Regulation Authority and the Bar Standards Board through the Joint Academic Stage Board.

Joe Richardson BA (HONS) MEDIA AND COMMUNICATION “I was drawn to Media and Communication at Winchester for its variety of career options within the broad areas of social media, film, journalism and marketing. I also loved the beautiful, friendly campus with great facilities and the city close by. “I enjoy being in control of shaping and tailoring my learning, so in the first year I tried to gain a broad understanding of at all media and then chose to focus on areas of interest in Years 2 and 3. “All modules have helped to identify and develop my strengths while learning new transferable skills. My favourite module was Branding and Advertising – for the assignment, we created a new product and the promotional material to accompany it. It was great fun and enabled me to put my skills into practice. “I also found it interesting to explore the impact of social media. As individuals now have the power to communicate to a huge reach, particularly if posts go viral, Media and Communication really gives you an insight into what’s going on in society today.”

Modern Liberal Arts (Philosophy) BA (Hons)
CT
Modern Liberal Arts (Philosophy) at Winchester retrieves and updates the oldest university curriculum in European higher education. Liberal arts education (Latin: liberalis, free, and ars, art or principled practice) involves you in thinking philosophically across many subject boundaries in the humanities, the social and natural sciences, and fine arts. Course overview You explore a range of profound and important ideas and concepts, unrestricted by academic subject boundaries and underpinned by an integrated approach to the curriculum. You read and reflect on many of the most influential texts in the Western tradition, and beyond it, and discuss your own responses both in writing and orally. Study on the programme draws on classical and modern texts, as well as contemporary and popular culture, including film, music and art. In Year 1, you are introduced to the Liberal Arts of ancient and medieval times, but complemented by modern themes and texts. You explore some of the most profound mysteries surrounding human existence and the science of the cosmos, and the question of freedom and its relation to enlightenment. In addition, you can choose to question the meaning of ‘higher’ education both present and past, to explore representations of the ‘fall’ in art and literature, to examine philosophy in cinematic film, to learn about the Renaissance, and to study tragedy in ancient culture. In Year 2, there are two compulsory modules that deepen our understanding of freedom by reading some of the most influential texts and thinkers within social theory, philosophy, art and science from the last two and half thousand years of European culture and beyond. In addition, there are a number of optional modules that you can choose from according to your own interests. In the final year, you produce a dissertation on a subject of your choosing.
The core modules undertake an adventure into some of the most profound questions concerning human existence and the idea of freedom. The optional modules look at many aspects of liberal arts education in detail, enabling you to pursue areas you are most interested in, including studies in the Holocaust, nature, the soul, religion(s), art, music, science, literature and education. All modules share a philosophical approach in exploring their issues and questions.
Careers Graduates are particularly eligible for all humanities-based graduate-entry jobs.

Joel Best BA (HONS) MUSICAL THEATRE “This course teaches you a range of skills, and you’ll be part of a friendly and supportive community with others who share your passion. We had the opportunity to workshop a brand new piece of musical theatre written by Dougal Irvine, which was based on The Quite Remarkable Adventures of the Owl and the Pussycat by Eric Idle from Monty Python. This helps to relate what we’ve learnt at Winchester into a practical application in the industry. “The Mayflower Theatre in Southampton has been the destination to see several musicals, including Kiss Me Kate, Sunny Afternoon and Mamma Mia. Seeing these helps to support the academic side of the course and also allows you to see live pieces of theatre, which is always beneficial. “The facilities on campus are really good – we have a dedicated rehearsal and performance building and musical practice rooms. “To further build my CV and skill set, I am working to help shape and develop the course as a Student Rep. I am also a member of the committee for Performing Arts Winchester – a society that allows you to get involved in the performing arts outside of the course.”

Philosophy, Politics and Economics BA (Hons) •V•
Philosophy, Politics and Economics at Winchester asks the big questions about humanity, the world, our history and contemporary society. It equips you with the skills and understanding to play a part in shaping our future society. Course overview Understanding our world with its financial crises, interminable wars, ecological catastrophes and cultural clashes may seem almost impossible. A degree in Philosophy, Politics and Economics (PPE) at Winchester gives you a strong start for not only understanding that world, but for stepping into it and enacting positive change. The particular concoction of disciplines that is Philosophy, Politics and Economics was first developed in Oxford in the 1920s in order to give future politicians and civil servants the range of skills they would need to govern modern Britain. Since then, those skills have proven themselves ideal for anyone who needs to engage with the modern state, from journalists and business leaders to those working for international Non-Governmental Organisations. Studying PPE gives you the chance to understand the development of the modern world, to discover how we can practically engage with the problems of today, and to reflect on the challenges of the future. The backbone of the programme is a three-year chronological sweep of Western philosophy, across which you trace the development of concepts such as democracy, freedom and responsibility from the Ancient Greek polis to the modern nation-state. We critically address the central notions that have developed in this tradition, such as the metaphysical doctrines of freedom, idealism and the existence of God; the political ideas of liberalism, democracy and property; and the economic notions of growth, laissez-faire capitalism and Marxism. Building on this philosophical backbone, a wide
range of political and economic modules allow you to focus on the contemporary national and international situation. You have the chance to debate contentious political issues and to test the limits of established models and orthodoxies, all on an exciting course explicitly oriented towards how future global challenges demand that we learn to think differently. The programme includes the opportunity for real-world work placements in politics, field visits and face-to-face engagement with figures from the heights of British politics.

Policing and Criminal Investigation BSc (Hons) Policing and Criminal Investigation at Winchester has been specifically designed for police student officers who are enrolled within the Police Degree Apprenticeship Scheme, students who have an interest in a policing career as a police officer or member of police staff, or those who have an interest in police-related subjects such as criminology, forensic science, psychology and sociology. Course overview The programme focuses on police law, theory and practice. During Year 1, you focus on the history of policing, police legislation and some practical elements such as road traffic, missing person investigations and forensic criminology. During Year 2, the emphasis moves toward some of the more sophisticated challenges facing modern-day policing, such as the use of social media, working with offenders, and dealing with major investigations and critical incidents ranging from violent assaults to natural disasters. In the final year, you learn about the challenges of policing the vulnerable elements of our society, as well as dealing with organised crime groups and the impact of transnational crime. In addition to the evidencebased dissertation, you have a large selection of optional modules to choose from to tailor the course to your interests. The course has been designed to meet the requirements of the Police Constable Degree Apprenticeship Scheme and will therefore have a balanced programme of theory and practical inputs. Police constable students have additional inputs around personal safety, handcuffing and restraint techniques, whereas non-police students will be able to enjoy a rich variety of police-related subjects and inputs, mainly by serving and ex-police officers to bring extensive operational experience and insight in to the content being delivered. Whilst the course is specifically aimed at those seeking to become police officers in England and Wales, it
will also be of interest if you are seeking a career within a criminal justice environment.

Politics and Global Studies at Winchester offers you the opportunity to understand the complex political and global issues which dominate the contemporary world at local, regional and global levels. The topics of study are set in firm historical, geographical, economic, social and cultural contexts in order to provide you with a theoretical framework of knowledge to apply to the contemporary focus of the course. Course overview Politics and Global Studies examines contentious contemporary political issues and the world order which has resulted, including but not limited to those post9/11. Many of these issues involve the United States and its post-Cold War relations with other nations through tendencies such as economic globalisation, the rise of a global culture through technological interconnection, the intersections of global/regional/local politics and the alleged ‘clash of civilisations‘ as well as concerns over energy security and environmental dislocation. These topics, and others, are set in firm historical and cultural contexts in order to provide you with a theoretical framework of knowledge with which to apply to the contemporary focus of the course. The United States is often seen to act as a global hegemony, ordering the contemporary global political environment but, increasingly, subject to a variety of challenges whether from nation-states at a global or regional level, or from ‘forces’ such as environmental change, religious fundamentalism, or energy and resource scarcity amongst others. As a result, the programme deals with the United States in some depth; however, this is not its sole focus, either geographically or in a political context. Some modules which look at the US’ place in the world order do so from the perspective of Europe and other nations enmeshed in the international system. This focus is set against the competing power structures and alliances posed by regional and potential global
competitors such as Japan, India and China. Finally, in a contemporary world order full of uncertainty, much of it created either by or in conflict with the United States, the new challenge of rogue state or non-state actors and institutions will be a significant focus. The programme engages with a diversity of contemporary political topics and employs a diversity of materials and approaches in turn. Overall, we aim to ensure you are knowledgeable about contemporary political issues and can take this forward into employment, confidently utilising a variety of intellectual concepts and skills.
Core modules† Year 1 • Introduction to Politics and Global Studies 1 and 2 • Introduction to Politics and Political Philosophy • Introduction to British Politics • Introduction to Global Political Economy • United States Politics and Society • Human Rights in the Global Political Economy • The New Agenda-seekers Year 2 • US Foreign Policy: Institutions and Concepts • Political and Religious Themes in the Near and Middle East • Globalisation and Diversity • Optional modules include Global Governance; The War on Terror and the Axis of Evil and Beyond; International Law; Discourses of

Cecilia Andrei BA (HONS) POLITICS AND GLOBAL STUDIES “I grew up in Romania listening to stories from my grandmother about the dictatorship and oppression my family had suffered. This made me want to fight for human rights. “I was attracted to this course at Winchester as it contains global elements – I did not want a narrow view of politics, but wanted to understand how the entire political world works from a wider perspective. Winchester was also ideal because of its location; it is friendly and the city centre is close by. “It was the perfect choice as it has developed me as a person as well as developing my knowledge. In my first year, Politics and Global Studies won Programme of the Year at the Student-Led Teaching Awards, reinforcing the fact I had chosen the right course! “There is so much to get involved with! The University is currently supporting PeaceJam and its peacebuilding programmes. This partnership has led to three conferences where Nobel Peace Laureates visited the University to inspire youth to peaceful action. “My time at Winchester has led me to want to pursue human rights law – I want to be able to help people and make a difference; I want to fight for peace and justice.”

Maisha Islam BA (HONS) SOCIOLOGY “I chose to study Sociology as I had a great passion for the subject whilst studying my A levels. However, what is unique about the discipline is its capacity to explore concepts that are extremely topical. As such, I particularly enjoy looking at race and religion but also how they intersect with gender and class. From this, my dissertation has allowed me to combine both aspects by looking at how British Muslims have been positioned within the media and how Muslims may challenge these representations via social media. “I believe that the course allows for a broader and more critical understanding of the world which is further encouraged by attending talks or trips. For example, we have had the opportunity to visit Berlin, The British Library, the Houses of Parliament and more! “The course has enabled a great sense of personal development which has been facilitated by the lecturers who are always on hand for advice. For example, I have gone from struggling to speak in public to being able to present confidently in front of my peers. As a result, I believe I have gained key skills in presenting, debating and writing which are especially important for employment prospects. “I am passionate about helping people and embraced the opportunity to become a Student Listener – a peer-to-peer support service where I have undertaken 30 hours of professional training to actively listen to those wanting to use the service. I believe my course will help in finding a profession that marries both of my passions.”

Sport and Exercise Science BSc (Hons) Sport and Exercise Science at Winchester focuses on the disciplines of sport and exercise physiology, sport and exercise psychology, sport and exercise biomechanics, and research methods. Course overview This highly specific and scientific sport and exercise programme uniquely focuses on the disciplines of sport and exercise psychology, sport and exercise physiology, sport and exercise biomechanics, and research methods. You are provided with the knowledge base to critically evaluate and engage with contemporary research related to sports performance and exercise participation. In addition, you develop the necessary skills to actively initiate and conduct scientific projects linked to individuals, teams and agencies from across the wider spectrum of sport and exercise. This course comprises four key strands: Sport and Exercise Psychology strand The aim of the psychological strand is to enable you to make an informed assessment of those psychological factors that are thought to influence an individual’s involvement and performance in sport and exercise. You examine ways in which psychological constructs influence sporting and exercise involvement and behaviour. Sport and Exercise Physiology strand This strand gives you an understanding of the physiology underpinning exercise and sports performance. In essence, it examines the underlying physiological adaptations that occur during sport and addresses issues pertinent to today’s competitive athlete. Consequently, the strand specifically addresses whole-body system integration, looking at factors such as metabolism, trainability and adaptation, as well as hormonal and cardiorespiratory responses.
Sports and Exercise Biomechanics strand This strand centres on the mechanical analysis of human movement with a focus on reducing injuries and improving performance within both competitive sporting and recreational exercise settings. The strand incorporates mechanical principles of motion, kinematic and kinetic concepts, anatomical knowledge and a range of quantitative measurement techniques that allow for a greater understanding of the muscular, joint and skeletal actions of the body during the execution of a given task, skill or technique. Research Methods strand This strand seeks to develop a familiarity with both quantitative and qualitative research methodologies and apply these to various sporting and exercise contexts. The acquisition of such skills not only underpins learning from coursework in other strands, but is also a prerequisite for completing the dissertation. The dissertation itself is designed to provide an opportunity to study an area that you are most interested in. You are supervised throughout this process but are expected to take increasing responsibility for the development of this piece of work.

Sport Psychology and Coaching BSc (Hons)
Sport Psychology and Coaching at Winchester seeks to develop your expertise in both sports coaching and the psychology of sport and exercise. Study incorporates a wide range of specific knowledge essential to excel in the industry including coaching science and practice , sport psychology, performance analysis and research methods. Course overview This programme allows you to develop a strong theoretical knowledge base and extensive practical and interpersonal skills. The programme comprises four key strands. Sports Coaching Practice strand This enables you to apply theory to a variety of practical coaching situations. You are introduced to generic coaching principles and have the opportunity to demonstrate these in your own areas of interest. We believe coach education and development are important elements of improving sports performance at all levels. Therefore, we aim to enable you to understand the importance of communication from coach to athlete, and examine coaching from learning, teaching and analysis perspectives. You are also involved in coaching consultancy work in the local sporting community to enhance your employment prospects and deepen your understanding of sports coaching in practice. There are opportunities to gain coaching qualifications in tandem with these modules. Sport and Exercise Psychology strand The aim of the psychological strand is to enable you to make an informed assessment of those psychological factors that are thought to influence an individual’s involvement and performance in sport and exercise. You examine ways in which psychological constructs influence sporting and exercise involvement and behaviour.
Sports Coaching Science strand This strand is based around the application of aspects of sports science to the world of sports coaching – where this knowledge requires a unique style of interpretation and communication. Certain aspects of applied sports biomechanics (the analysis of movement), physiology (principles of training) and psychology (where the roles of sports psychologists and coaches ‘collide’) are covered to provide you with a science toolkit for sports coaching. Research Methods strand This strand seeks to develop a familiarity with both quantitative and qualitative research methodologies and apply these to various sporting and exercise contexts. The acquisition of such skills not only underpins learning from coursework in other strands, but is also a prerequisite for completing the dissertation. The dissertation itself is designed to provide an opportunity to study an area that you are most interested in. You are supervised throughout this process but are expected to take increasing responsibility for the development of this piece of work.

Sports Business and Marketing BA (Hons)
Sports Business and Marketing at Winchester keeps a focus on current issues such as the growth and importance of sponsorship, the building of the sports brand, and a critical analysis of the use of social media, underpinned by a strong understanding of business and marketing principles and practice. Course overview This programme has been designed with employability firmly in mind and the contemporary nature of the modules, structure and teaching strongly reflect this. There are four key strands. Sports Marketing strand Sport is big business and this strand reflects that position. The central themes are those that the contemporary observer could identify with, such as the multi-billion pound value of brands and how to build them; the use and growth of social media as part of a marketing implementation; and the continued growth and changing nature of sponsorship. Amateur sport is by no means neglected, and is considered further in conjunction with other strands. Sports Studies strand The starting point is how the complex interactions of sport within society set a context for all studies of sport. Sport and its relationship with the media would be an example of a specific topic within a broad socio-cultural exploration. Only by scrutinising a range of major issues impacting sport is it possible to appreciate what the world of sport can tell us about the past, the global importance sport has achieved today and what sport might become in the future. Management, Marketing and Events strand The Management, Marketing and Events strand is delivered in collaboration with the Winchester Business School. It focuses on a range of specific factors including management and leadership, sports and mega events, relationship marketing, consumer behaviour, strategic marketing, digital
marketing and financial management. The addition of this strand strengthens the breadth and flexibility for learning. The modules provide a framework that the specific sports business and marketing modules add depth, context and clarity to. Within this strand you are able to select modules that match your personal interests or ambitions. Academic understanding is reinforced with sporting case examples to enrich your engagement. The interweaving of these modules is expected to widen the employability options within business overall, as well as within sport. Research Methods strand This strand seeks to develop a familiarity with both quantitative and qualitative research methodologies and apply these to various sporting and exercise contexts. The acquisition of such skills not only underpins learning from coursework in other strands, but is also a prerequisite for completing the dissertation. The dissertation itself is designed to provide an opportunity to study an area that you are most interested in. You are supervised throughout this process but are expected to take increasing responsibility for the development of this piece of work.

Sports Coaching BSc (Hons) Sports Coaching at Winchester allows you to critically engage at an academic level with one of the fastest growing sports disciplines and reflect on your own coaching practice in practical and community-based environments. Course overview Central to this course is the belief that coaching theory and knowledge only become relevant when applied in practice. The programme comprises four key strands. Sports Coaching Practice strand The sports coaching strand enables you to apply theory to a variety of practical coaching situations. You are introduced to generic coaching principles and have the opportunity to demonstrate these in your own areas of interest. We believe coach education and development are important elements of improving sports performance at all levels.

You are also involved in coaching consultancy work in the local sporting community to enhance your employment prospects and deepen your understanding of sports coaching in practice. There are opportunities to gain coaching qualifications in tandem with these modules. Supporting Coaching Practice strand The modules within this strand aim to provide a variety of topics that aid you as a coach in your understanding of both scientific and sociological coaching principles. You focus on how inequality affects both the coaching profession and sports participation in general, how sport is resourced and how sport is used to develop local communities. We take a deeper look at
training methodology and the use of technology in a performance setting, such as video match analysis. There is also a focus on educational theory and how it can aid us in structuring coaching and physical education classes. Finally, you explore coaching special populations, with the primary focus on disability sport. Sports Coaching Science strand This strand is based around the application of aspects of sports science to the world of sports coaching – where this knowledge requires a unique style of interpretation and communication. Certain aspects of applied sports biomechanics (the analysis of movement), physiology (principles of training) and psychology (where the roles of sports psychologists and coaches ‘collide’) are covered to provide you with a science toolkit for sports coaching.

Jordan Chalk BSC (HONS) SPORTS COACHING “My career as a football player unfortunately ended due to an injury. However, I was keen to stay in the game so decided I wanted to study Sports Coaching to get a better understanding of how to be an effective coach. I visited on an Open Day and was sold by the motivational lecturer and the great facilities available. “From laboratories full of machines and equipment to a sports hall that can easily hold over 100, it is obvious that a lot of investment has been made to ensure top quality facilities. “In addition to trips to watch live games, we benefit from a range of interesting guest speakers across different sports. We’ve been able to hear from Kit Symons, team coach from the Wales national football team, and network with members of Saracens rugby club. “We also heard from a member of the Chelsea Football Club who spoke about an upcoming full-time graduate job opportunity. I applied and was chosen from over 5,000 applicants. I’m very fortunate to have got the job and it’s thanks to the connections the University has.”

Sports Studies BA (Hons)
STUDENT SATISFACTION†
Sports Studies at Winchester allows all aspects of sport, ranging from recreational sport and exercise to international elite competition, to be studied from a variety of academic perspectives. It provides a balanced, multidisciplinary and critical overview of the significance of sport and exercise. Course overview This programme is characterised by the ability to specialise in some of the diverse academic disciplines within sport, while maintaining a core of knowledge and theoretical understanding drawn from sports sociology and research methods. All aspects of sport (ranging from recreational sport to elite competition) are studied from a variety of perspectives. This multidisciplinary approach exposes you to a range of paradigms within and between disciplines, and highlights the common ground between them while giving you the opportunity to tailor the programme to your own specific interests. This programme comprises modules that are clustered into four academic strands that extend from Year 1 to Year 3. Two of the strands are mandatory (see below). You then have the freedom to complement these with two additional strands that feature in the University’s other Sports programmes. Sport and Society strand This strand seeks to develop a critical understanding of sport as a significant element of culture and society. Indeed, by bringing together the applied disciplines of sociology and history, this strand builds a knowledge base around understanding the place of sport in society over time. The common sense notion of sport as a discrete and separate part of society is challenged. It is advocated that, by adopting a rigorous socio-cultural appreciation of sport, it is possible to develop a more accurate interpretation of what sport has represented in
the past, what it represents today and what it might become in the future. Research Methods strand This strand seeks to develop a familiarity with both quantitative and qualitative research methodologies and apply these to various sporting and exercise contexts. The acquisition of such skills not only underpins learning from coursework in other strands, but is also a prerequisite for completing the dissertation. The dissertation itself is designed to provide an opportunity to study an area that you are most interested in. You are supervised throughout this process but are expected to take increasing responsibility for the development of this piece of work.

The strand specifically addresses whole-body system integration, looking at factors such as metabolism, trainability and adaptation, as well as hormonal and cardiorespiratory responses. It examines nutritional requirements from the recreational athlete to the elite competitor. You will study methods of physiological assessment for the purposes of implementing appropriate training programmes and assessing various components of fitness.
Research Methods strand This strand seeks to develop a familiarity with both quantitative and qualitative research methodologies and to apply these to various sporting and exercise contexts. The acquisition of such skills not only underpins learning from coursework in other strands, but is also a prerequisite for completing the dissertation. The use of technology in a performance setting, such as video match analysis, is also an essential element of the strand. The dissertation itself is designed to provide an opportunity to study an area that you are most interested in. You are supervised throughout this process but are expected to take increasing responsibility for the development of this piece of work.

Tom Callaghan BA (HONS) THEATRE PRODUCTION (ARTS AND STAGE MANAGEMENT) “I was drawn to Theatre Production at Winchester as the focus is on producing an entire show from start to finish, rather than the performance elements. “It has helped me realise my strengths and how much I love the theatre. It has widened my perspective and I can no longer just sit and enjoy the show as I am analysing the set, the lighting and all the extra bits that make it a great performance – this is both good and bad! “The facilities here are very useful – especially considering it is an everchanging industry as technology develops – the performance spaces are fitted with sound systems and full rigs and we attend workshops to build sets. “Following my internship with the Theatre Royal Winchester, I have been fortunate enough to return to work on two pantomimes. It has been an amazing experience to be part of a professional team running a full-scale show. “This course has opened so many doors for my future and has helped me build a great CV to enter the profession with passion and confidence.”

Matthew Grove BA (HONS) THEOLOGY, RELIGION AND ETHICS “As a mature student who commutes, both location and support were key deciding factors once I realised the course was ideal for me. I can easily travel to campus, and make use of the Park and Ride student discount or the train station close by. There’s also a Commuters Society and Commuters Lounge available. The lecturers have been really supportive as I’ve eased back into education and it has been a smoother process than I anticipated. “Religion is in the news almost daily now so it is really important to understand it in all its forms. The course links to current issues and debates as you expand a breadth of religious literacy from different perspectives. “I’ve recognised my development and progression throughout the course, and enjoy the opportunities to specialise in our own areas of interest. The modules are really fascinating, with my favourite so far exploring the relationship between science and theology in both the past and present. “Studying at Winchester has been such a good experience that I would like to continue to complete a postgraduate qualification.”

Theology, Religion and Ethics BA (Hons)
STUDENT SATISFACTION†
Theology, Religion and Ethics at Winchester combines an exploration of religious traditions with an examination of theological arguments, ancient texts and ethical controversies. You explore the way religious ideas and practices have impacted cultures, as well the way cultures have influenced ideas about religion and belief.
You explore religion as a lived cultural phenomenon and engage with the textual, intellectual and ideological frameworks of human belief systems. Examining the way religious texts and practices are expressed and critiqued in contemporary culture, you use your knowledge to think about ethical debates and controversies. You develop critical viewpoints on the great texts of the Western tradition; become oriented in religious practices from across the globe; discuss the ethical issues facing us as a society; and grow as writers, debaters and thinkers in your own right. The degree seeks to develop skills in close reading, critical argumentation, and cultural literacy. Study in Year 1 is foundational and provides the basis for specialised study in Years 2 and 3. In Year 1, you undertake year-long modules in theological tradition and religious studies which are designed to develop study skills and enhance your confidence in critical writing and reading. These sit alongside specialist modules
in Christianity, biblical scholarship, ethics and philosophy. In Years 2 and 3, you are able to build a profile of options to develop your own academic interests; these reflect the range of specialisms offered in the Department. Optional modules tend to encourage you to think about the way religious ideas and practices interact with the contemporary world.
Core modules† Year 1 • Great Theological Minds • Perspectives on Living Religions • Ethics and Religion • Introduction to Early Modern Philosophy • Understanding Christianity • Controversies in Biblical Studies Year 2 • What’s Next? • Optional modules include Bioethics and Theology; Gender, Sexuality and the Bible; Aspects of Islam; Science and Theology; Constructing Meanings: Bible as Literature; Religion in Contemporary Britain; The Many Faces of Jesus; Independent Study Module; Field Studies or Advanced Field Studies; Religion, Ethics and War; The Bible and Contemporary Culture; Buddhism: Traditions and Transformations; Judaism in the Contemporary World; Contemporary
