Course Summary

**Course Overview** - In choosing to study a Modern Language alongside English Literature, you’ll greatly enhance your communication skills and gain the experience necessary for a successful career. - Foundation Entry degree courses are ideal if you’ve got the ability to study for a degree, but don’t have the necessary formal qualifications to directly join an honours programme. It’s a great stepping stone to a full degree. - On the Literature side of the course, you’ll explore and analyse literary texts and their relationship to society and culture. - Your Modern Language studies will focus on developing excellent verbal and written communication skills in your chosen language, while exploring the society and culture of the countries where your language is spoken. **Why study with us** - Literature in English at the University is 1st in the North West and 2nd in the UK for academic support - National Student Survey (NSS) 2019. - Our Modern Languages teachers speak more than 20 languages between them and many work as interpreters and translators alongside their teaching. - Explore major literary centres, such as Paris, and the relationship between literature and place. **Further Information** We offer the following languages, some of which may be studied without prior knowledge: - From beginner’s level: Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Spanish, Korean. - From post A Level: French, Japanese, German, Spanish (if you have an A2 in one of our other languages and wish to enter at post A Level, please call to arrange an interview)
