Introduction
Get an honors degree in language studies
Learning a language and about how languages work (including English) opens doors to other cultures and communities, and gives you experience of the world that goes deeper than the average tourist trip. It can also provide a key to the global workplace.
This flexible degree allows you to study two modern languages (from French, German and Spanish), or one language and English – with additional options in beginners’ Chinese (Mandarin), and both beginners’ and intermediate Italian.
Key features of the course
- Learn about cultures of the languages chosen and develop your intercultural communicative competence
- Learn to communicate fluently in at least one modern language
- Understand how language is structured and how its use varies in different contexts
- Take your language proficiency to level C1 of the Common European Framework of Reference
- Acquire valuable transferable skills in managing and motivating yourself, setting and achieving goals, working with others and using ICT
