You will be taught by internationally renowned researchers, reflecting the latest trends in history and cultural studies in modern languages. You will also have the opportunity to study a number of cross-cultural modules which will allow you to explore specific themes across a variety of language-speaking areas.This history and language degree will equip you to reach near-native standard in one language - French, German, Italian or Spanish - or upper-intermediate or advanced level in Japanese, depending on your level at entry, as well as practising allied skills such as translating, summary-writing, and delivering written and oral presentations. Alongside this, you will be able to study a range of periods, places and themes, from human prehistory and classical civilisation, through to the medieval and early modern periods, and on to twenty-first-century history, politics and culture.This BA History and Language is carefully structured to give you the opportunity to:- develop the linguistic and research skills, analytical tools and critical approaches to assess contemporary culture and historical evidence- question accepted wisdoms about both past and present.Your career prospects will also be enhanced by developing the ability to formulate and communicate your own ideas effectively in both English and your chosen second language.If you opt for the Foundation Year route, this will fully prepare you for undergraduate study.
