Unlock the world with a Modern Languages BA that allows you to study one or two languages and their related cultures. You’ll gain the knowledge and skills you need to join the next generation of leading European and global citizens. You can choose whether to study French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, or a combination of two languages. Should you decide to study a combination of two languages, the ab initio pathway will get you to fluency without any previous experience in that second language. You’ll develop advanced language skills thanks to teaching from native speakers and leading experts. An exceptionally wide choice of modules will give you a solid grounding in key aspects of literary, historical and cultural studies while also allowing you the flexibility to tailor your studies to suit your own interests. Your language learning and intercultural competence will be accelerated by a year abroad when you will immerse yourself in the culture and society of a French, German, Portuguese or Spanish-speaking country.
