This Modern Languages degree allows you to study two languages, with the opportunity to study a third through optional modules.
Whether you’re starting your language from beginners’ level, or with an A-level, you’ll reach a professional standard in your chosen languages through intensive learning practice and your residence abroad – where you’ll spend a term and a year in the countries where your chosen languages are spoken.
You’ll choose from a range of topics including literature, cinema, popular culture, history and politics. You’ll explore cultures and societies across the world while focusing on the countries where your languages of choice are spoken, with the opportunity to enhance your translation skills or business language.
Your independent research project in your final year will be an opportunity to conduct and present your own research.
You’ll gain the language and professional skills to prepare you for an international career in many sectors.
