Why Lancaster?
Choose your Language. Choose your Level Studying Languages and Global Cultures at Lancaster gives you the flexibility to choose up to four languages at various levels. You can choose to study French, German and Spanish at all levels and Chinese and Italian at beginners/intermediate level.
Modelled on the Common European Framework of Reference for languages and HSK proficiency levels, this course allows you to follow a progressional ladder on an internationally recognised scale, ensuring you become a multi-lingual graduate in at least two languages.
A global and future-orientated approach This programme offers an innovative, flexible and global approach to modern languages and cultures. You will explore the past, present, and future of global cultures, analysing major global issues and activating your languages and cultural knowledge to shape responses to these challenges.
Alongside language development, you will study topics such as the climate emergency, global health crises, human rights, and community engagement. You will learn how these topics intersect with issues of race, gender, sexuality, disability, and belief across diverse language communities around the world.
Your language learning will be enriched by cultural studies, covering film, visual media, literature, art, and history, providing a comprehensive understanding of the societal contexts of your chosen languages.
Additionally, you will investigate the future of global languages, the opportunities of emerging technologies and the evolving career opportunities for language specialists.
Preparing for your career With a strong focus on skills and employability, this programme will ensure you acquire transferable multilingual skills and attributes that are attractive to employers. As a multilingual graduate you will gain enhanced cognitive abilities, improved memory skills and develop your capacity for decision-making.
Speaking different languages also allows for the exchange of ideas, increases empathy, and allows access to different perspectives, attributes that are highly desirable to employers.
Many of these attributes will aid you in developing skills such as teamwork, problem-solving, negotiation, and research analysis, all of which are desirable to international companies and organisations.
In year three you will put these skills into practice by spending a minimum of three months abroad, working, teaching or studying in your chosen country. Alternatively, you can opt to work for an overseas company in the UK.
