Bachelor of Arts - Modern Languages (Honors)

Prepare yourself for success in this truly global age by learning two modern languages. Open up a world of opportunities for your future. Choose from British Sign Language, Chinese, Japanese or Korean.

On our BA (Hons) Modern Languages course you'll study two languages in depth. You’ll work on both formal and informal skills, developing academic knowledge of your chosen languages. You'll also gain a practical understanding of how they’re used in real life – including in translation and interpretation.

The units you’ll study will help you look beyond the mechanics of language, by focusing on the social and cultural contexts. You'll debate history, politics, film, literature and more. Language is the ultimate transferable skill. But you’ll also have the chance to develop skills that will serve you well in professional life, from time management to team working.

You’ll learn in small groups, meaning you'll get lots of time with your lecturers. You will also have plenty of opportunity to practise with our language assistants and your fellow students. And whichever languages you choose to study, you’ll be part of a community of modern foreign language students.
