There are core modules at stage 1 and 2 which give students a grounding in methodology and themes within the American experience. American Studies is also available as a Major, Joint or Minor pathway, combined with other subjects, within the same CAMS programme. Students choose from the same modules but have the flexibility of combining America with other subject areas.
Students have the opportunity to spend one semester in the USA during year two.
At present the University sends students to New Hampshire, Virginia, Utah, Arkansas, Tennessee and Alabama.
