Undergraduate Modern Languages courses

  • Our fusion of language and culture places your future at the forefront.

    A flexible approach to learning allows you to tailor your degree: choose one, two or three languages in various weightings, including starting up to two new languages from scratch. Learning goes beyond language itself as you explore culture, history, politics and society. You’ll also gain an understanding of the working world through areas such as translation and language teaching. With the amazing opportunity to spend a year abroad and the latest language-learning technology to support your studies, you’ll be ready to take on the future. And with journalism, translation and the travel, retail and banking industries making up just some of the options, you’ll enjoy the road ahead.
