1) Getting Dressed(01 of15)
Open Image ModalYes, getting dressed is a course. Presumably students turn up completely naked to the first lecture. Although say what you like about useless degrees, this one at least does teach a valuable life skill. Albeit one for should have grasped by the age of 4. (credit:juhansonin/Flickr)
2) Zombies in popular media(02 of15)
Open Image ModalOf all the characters to choose to study in depth in all of literature and film and theatre, this course chooses zombies. The most one dimensional, monotomous creatures outside of Brideshead Revisitied. They literally do two things. Wander around and bite people. They’re the Luiz Suarez of the horror channel.

3) Sociology and Miley cyrus(03 of15)
Open Image ModalFor anyone who found Tellitubbies and Anthropology to hard. It's true, you can now twerk your way through higher education. (credit:ROCOR/FLICKR)
3) Parapsychology(04 of15)
Open Image ModalIf zombies in the media wasn’t enough for you then you can try and meet them in real life. Parapsychology is the study the paranormal. You know, ghosts and things. The good thing about studying this is that you learn to communicate with things that are dead, which mean you can talk to your career, life prospects and parent’s respect for you. Also, according to our stock photos in involves cycling. (credit: TIMO KIRKKALA/FLICKR)
4) The Beatles, Popular Music and Society(05 of15)

5) Adventure(06 of15)
Open Image ModalA DEGREE IN ADVENTURE. THAT SOUNDS AWESOME. I don’t know what to do first, the module in slaying dragons or the class arm wrestling ogres. In reality this is just an extreme sports degree. Which is a shame because a goblin just stole my cat. (credit: HPERTICARATI/FLICKR)
Arguing with Judge Judy(07 of15)
Open Image ModalThis degree encourages students to search for the logical fallacies in the arguments on Judge Judy. Umm, I hate to break it to you but you don't need a degree to find the flaws in what people on Judge Judy say. Just a brain and the willingness to watch Judge Judy. (credit:FANDAYOU_0088/FLICKR)
8) Harry Potter and the Age of Illusion(08 of15)
Open Image ModalYes it sounds like a Harry Potter guest starring Dynamo. But this is actually a course. And it is actually at Durham Uni. As if it wasn’t hard enough being an Oxbridge reject, you have to go to a Uni that does a degree in Harry Potter. (credit:BIBICALL/FLICKR)
9) Surfing studies(09 of15)
Open Image ModalWho’d have thought that surfing was worth a degree? Plymouth, that’s who. Granted the actual surfing part is tricky it isn’t the most transferable skill.And apart beng on the waves, what else is there to study? Growing long hair and saying “Duuuuuude” can’t be that hard.

7) Philosophy and Star Trek(10 of15)
Open Image ModalOkay, you can’t just tack a TV show to a slightly legitimate degree and make it a thing. International Relations and Fawlty Towers. Looney Tunes and Engineering. It doesn’t work. (credit:X-RAY DELTA ONE/FLICKR)
What if Harry Potter is real(11 of15)
Open Image ModalHe isn't. There, I saved you £27,000 (credit:TONY TREMBLAY VIA GETTY IMAGES)
6) Dance and Waste Management(12 of15)
Open Image ModalThis course has existed for years and yet we still haven’t seen any dancing dustbin men. Still, we guess it’s more useful than just studying dance. At least this degree will also prepare you for what you’ll do after a dance degree. (credit:DON MASON VIA GETTY IMAGES)
Oprah Winfrey, the tycoon(13 of15)
Open Image ModalWho dared call Oprah Winfrey a tycoon? It wasn't us. Whoever it was, Oprah will crush you. And that wasn't even a fat joke. That women has power.Actually it was the University of Illinois. Say goodbye to the University of Illinois. (credit:NAYRB7/FLICKR)
10) Applied Golf Management Studies(14 of15)
Open Image Modal£9,000 a year? To learn to cut grass and talk to old people? Don’t spend your youth doing what you’ll end up doing when their old. And, as little as we know about fashion; the bright pink and lime green starred pantaloons a sure fire way to repel interest from the other gender. Unless you're Tiger Woods.

Politizising Beyonce(15 of15)
Open Image ModalThis degree compares Beyonce's lyrics to black writers in the feminist movement. Unfortunately it doesn't compare itself to real degrees. Now that would be good. (credit:MR AZED/FLICKR)
