Our MA in Global Cultures and Languages is a flexible programme that aims to equip students with advanced language skills in one or more areas and to develop their expertise in intercultural communication and cultural transfer. With a particular focus on training students for the global workplace, the programme enables students to take up an additional language and to develop digital and research skills.

Students can choose from modules designed to enhance professional skills and employability and deepen their knowledge of the target cultures in which they specialise; they will graduate from this programme with advanced knowledge and expertise in one or more language areas.

This one-year MA course will appeal to a wide range of people, including present and future language teachers, and those interested in language studies, linguistics, and oral and written communication. The course begins in late September, with teaching ending in March and a thesis is submitted in early October. The MA in Global Cultures and Languages requires attendance at lectures and seminars, the writing of course papers, and the completion of other assessed tasks including presentations.
