Modern Languages at Queen Mary University of London - UCAS

Course summary

Do you love learning languages and studying other cultures? Put together your ideal combination with our flexible degree. Our Modern Languages BA lets you choose from French, German, Russian, Spanish on their own or in combinations which also include Chinese or Portuguese and further offers a third language as a minor subject - including Catalan, Chinese (Mandarin), Modern Arabic or Japanese. No prior knowledge of any languages is required, we stream our language classes from beginner to native speaker, so you'll be taught at the right level. You'll combine practical classes in written and spoken language with understanding the wider context - the history and society of the nations that speak your chosen languages, their literatures and their roles around the world. You'll expand your horizons with modules that go beyond the obvious: Students of French can study Mauritian creole or the quirks of Belgian culture; students of Portuguese can study Brazilian cinema; students of Russian may perform a play in the language even in their first year; options in Spanish range form modern Cuban poetry to colonialism and students of German are immersed in Austrian and Swiss cultures too. You'll spend your third year studying or working overseas, an exceptional opportunity to put your languages to the test and develop your intercultural competence.

Modules

Levels: beginner, post-GCSE, post A-level, native/heritage speaker You’ll take a French language module every year, streamed according to entry level. Our Culture and Language module will equip you with the skills to analyse and write about literary, visual, and conceptual texts , as well as some basics of linguistics, enabling you to apply those methods to the specific cultures and languages that interest you, and preparing you for the kinds of modules you can choose in your second and final years. You will also take a further module focusing on French. In later years, you’ll choose from a wide range of modules. Year 1 options include Culture and Language Paris in Art
