Studying Modern Languages and History opens a window to the world - you can learn French or Spanish at degree level, alongside subjects in History that span prehistoric times to the contemporary world.

We cater for individuals who are learning a language from scratch, as well as more proficient learners. Teaching in small groups will not only give you more opportunities to practice speaking, listening and translation skills, but also make it easier to ask questions and get feedback. The year abroad is great preparation for today's multilingual and multicultural world of work.

Since the University was founded in 1884, Bangor has excelled in teaching and research in Modern Languages and History. Our staff have expertise in translation, film, literature, travel literature, performance, visual cultures, popular culture, socio-political change and transnational cultures.

Our staff have expertise in translation, film, literature, travel writing, performance, visual cultures, popular culture, socio-political change and transnational cultures. We have experts in all fields of history from the Middle Ages to the 20th century, working principally on Wales, Britain, Europe and the USA. From monarchs, monks, princes, kings and dictators to civil and world wars, there’s something for everyone.

The oldest city in Wales, Bangor is an ideal place to study your BA (Hons) Modern Languages and History. The Cathedral is located on a site used for Christian worship since the sixth century. A short journey away and you can explore Segontium and Caer Gybi Roman Forts, the medieval Caernarfon Castle and Menai Bridge, prehistoric burial ground of Bryn Celli Ddu, and Beaumaris Castle – the last in Edward I’s ‘iron ring’.
