University of Birmingham

University Faculties, Schools and Departments
(Birmingham, West Midlands, England)




The University of Birmingham offers single honours, joint honours, foundation year, and major / minor programmes in eight departments. The eight departments are:

  • Arts, Languages, Literature, and History
  • Education
  • Business
  • Social Sciences, Government, and Politics
  • Law
  • Engineering
  • Medicine, Dentistry, and Health Services
  • Science



Single honours programmes are standard tracks leading to a degree in one area of study. Joint degree and major/minor programmes allow students to study two distinct fields and be credited with degrees for both, while the foundation year allows students to enter a specific department without A-level qualifications.

Postgraduate programmes are offered in all eight departments as well, with an option for taught programmes. Programmes with partners are a popular option for mature students. The university coordinates with the Birmingham College of Food, Tourism, and Creative Studies for seven taught programmes in highly specialised areas.
