Languages open doors to a variety of career paths. Our aim is for you to become a ‘global citizen’ who thinks critically, understands cultural diversity and has a wealth of transferable skills.
On our 4-year Modern Languages (BA) programme, you’ll develop high-level communication and critical-thinking skills, and foster resilience and independence through time spent in immersive foreign language contexts.
You can choose to study one or 2 of the different languages we offer*. These include:
We run 2 programme pathways. If you have an A level or equivalent competence in a modern language, you’ll study the Upper Elementary pathway. If you have limited or no knowledge of a modern language, you’ll study the Elementary pathway.
You’ll explore the language(s) you’re studying and their social, political, historical and cultural contexts from a global perspective. Through a variety of language learning resources and materials, and a range of student-centred learning activities, you’ll develop your reading, writing, oral, listening and mediation skills.
An integral part of this programme is the opportunity to spend time working or living abroad, to experience life in the culture of the language(s) you are studying. You’ll have the choice of either studying at a partner university or completing a work placement in each semester.
On completion of this programme, you’ll be a confident and independent user of one or 2 modern foreign languages, able to speak and write fluently and accurately, and read, understand and analyse complex texts in those language(s) and in English.
It’s important to remember that studying languages is not just about the language itself, it involves the integrated study of language, culture and society. Our programme offers challenging and stimulating modules with a strong emphasis on cultural diversity and celebrates cultural and linguistic mobility.
* Please note: Chinese can only be taken as a single language, not in combination with any other language. Japanese is only available on an Elementary pathway.
