What is Languages?

Language degrees involve the in-depth study of one or more languages of your choice and can usually be found under two categories – modern languages, which are studied mainly for the purpose of communication, and classical languages, which are older, rarely-used languages studied out of cultural or linguistic interest (such as Sanskrit, Latin, Classical Chinese and Attic Greek).

What will I study?

Sample modules:

Study, Research and Communication Skills

French and Spanish Globalisation

Languages in Their Cultures

Greek Drama

Italian Philosophy

Students have the opportunity to immerse themselves in the technical aspects of the language while also exploring the culture, history and traditions involved.

Why study Languages?

Language graduates are in high demand for employment in a growing international climate.

Students can learn a second or third language alongside another degree such as media, business, law and international relations, which increases job prospects and often involves a year abroad during the course.

Students usually develop excellent communication skills and a heightened global awareness.
