Founded in 1919, UCL houses one of the oldest centres for Dutch Studies (Neerlandistiek) in the UK. The Dutch Studies pathway of the Language, Culture and History MA provides the opportunity for in-depth study of Dutch literature, culture, history and society. It offers the opportunity to improve Dutch language skills as part of the course, along with the methods, concepts and theories essential for the intercultural labour market.


The course includes one core module that introduces a combination of research methods, historiography, and approaches to literary and cultural studies. This module provides a strong foundation at graduate level and helps you develop the skills and knowledge needed to carry out research, write academic essays and your final dissertation.


You will also take optional modules and a dissertation. The optional modules you choose will be specific to your subject language, as well as cultural modules, which cover a range of topics that draw on literature, film, history, and linguistics, from an interdisciplinary perspective.
