Learn Chinese and Italian from beginner level and explore diverse cultures and societies across the world in this exciting five-year course.
You’ll have the opportunity to study abroad for two years, spending a year in China and another in Italy, where you’ll build your language skills and gain first-hand experience of the cultures.
Studying Italian, you’ll become fluent in the language and develop an in-depth knowledge of one of Europe’s most vibrant countries, and a leading world economy. You’ll build your proficiency in Chinese while exploring the society, history and culture of one of the world’s major economic powers.
This degree allows you to learn both languages from beginner level, although if you already have some knowledge of Chinese we can normally accommodate you. Core and optional modules will give you a firm grounding in both languages while you study the topics that interest you, allowing you to explore the history and culture of Italy, China and the wider Asia Pacific region.
