Modern Languages Degree (Combined Majors with Three Languages)

Modern Languages R800 BA/ML

This undergraduate degree scheme allows you to study three European Languages to be chosen from French, German, Italian and Spanish. We normally require you to have a good A-level in at least two of the languages. The third language can be studied from beginners' or post-GCSE level if you wish.

If you are taking Italian as one of your three languages, please note that this language will not continue into the final year. If you are studying French, German and Spanish, you may choose to drop one of the three languages at the end of the second year.

Though students must register for 200/201 and 300/301 in all three languages, they may, in the course of 2nd year, decide not to continue with one of these languages in the final year - 300 and 301 in that language are then replaced by one further unit of option courses.

The Year Abroad is normally split between two countries. Students continuing with all three languages into the final year are encouraged to make their own arrangements to spend vacation time in the third country.
