Overview
This course is also available as an Extended Master's that helps International students adjust to studying in the UK.
The course centres intercultural communication within applied linguistics. We believe in the importance of having an understanding of how language and other modes of communication are used in human interaction. The degree is designed to draw upon and share the experiences course participants from a variety of backgrounds who can bring to the course their own unique cultural understandings and experiences.
You will learn how to navigate the complex terrain of global communication. You will develop the tools to understand yourself and others in terms of their cultures, identities and communication practices as well as your expertise in, and your ability to: analyse intercultural interaction; research intercultural communication in a range of social settings and develop your ability to both practise and advise on successful intercultural communication in specific professional practice contexts.
Your future career
Graduates of this course will be able to pursue careers in a variety of contexts, including the careers where communication is central (e.g. advertising, media, publishing, human resources & translation), and a variety of public sector contexts (education, health, policy) as well communication training in diverse professional fields. Others may use this as a way to start their own business.
Students completing this MA might also go on to undertake a PhD in Applied Linguistics or a teaching qualification to take their practice into a school, FE or HE setting.
Please note that candidates will be interviewed by a member of the teaching team prior to being accepted onto the course. An Extended Masters helps international students get familiar with masters study through a preparation phase in the summer before the main course starts.
