Course summary
This is the course for true language lovers, giving you the opportunity to study three languages. If your passion is being able to communicate with people from around the globe, and you dream of having the opportunity to immerse yourself in other cultures – then this is course is for you! During your time with us, we’ll guide you through your three chosen languages (one of which may be from beginners' level) helping you push yourself towards fluency in preparation for your year abroad. Many of our students say the year abroad is their course highlight. Not only do you have the opportunity to fully immerse yourself in all three of your chosen languages and cultures, but spending time abroad can make you more independent and confident. Taking yourself out of your comfort zone won’t only benefit your degree, it’ll shape the person you are to become. You may choose three languages from: French, German, Portuguese (beginners' only), Russian, Serbian/Croatian (beginners' only) and Spanish. If you would like to study two languages, please see our Modern Languages BA.
Modules
Depending on the languages you choose and the level you start from there are certain core modules you have to take each year. You will spend years one and two focusing on core modules for your pathway of choice. Your core modules will depend on whether you're a beginner or post-A level in your language of choice. In year three, you will divide your time between the three countries where your chosen languages are spoken. Depending on where your placement is, you could study at one of our exchange universities, teach on the British Council assistantship programme, or undertake a work placement with a company. In year four, you will come back to Nottingham, and both beginners and post-A level pathways involve the same core modules for their chosen languages.
