Gain exceptional Italian language skills through this degree taught at one of the largest modern languages departments in the UK. When you embark on the Italian BA, you’ll also delve into Italian culture, literature and history, and spend an immersive year studying in Italy. Available for beginners or advanced speakers, all students are able to thrive in Italian work and life by the time they graduate. Popular career choices for graduates from the School of European Languages, Culture and Society include teaching, journalism and translation.


Over recent decades our world has become more interdependent and with these deeper connections comes an enhanced need for enlightened citizenship. Our degree in Italian offers expert teaching and learning in both language acquisition and intercultural contexts that will equip you to thrive in today’s global society. Over the four years, you will deepen your knowledge of the Italian language while also developing valuable skills in cultural literacy and critical thinking.


In Year 1, 2 and your final year, you will take language modules in Italian, as well as cultural modules covering a range of topics that draw on literature, film, history, and linguistics, from an interdisciplinary perspective.


You will spend the third year of your studies abroad in a country where Italian is spoken. You may spend the term studying at a partner university or on an approved work placement. You will achieve the same linguistic competence regardless of whether you start a language from beginner level or have previous knowledge of it. 


Your final year is spent at UCL. Back from your year abroad, you will be able to speak the language fluently and engage with your studies using a whole range of resources in Italian, as a native speaker would do. You will also take fourth-year language modules that are taught in Italian.
