Keep up with our story

We are a department of leading academics, writers, film-makers and journalists.

From our undergraduate students performing in the Lakeside Theatre, to our research staff publishing their latest literary works, you can keep up with our developments and read all about our current activities here.

You can also follow our student-led Essexjournalism website where our future journalists publish their own material.
