You will graduate as a highly qualified linguist, with specialist communication, research, critical and evaluative skills that are highly sought after by employers.
On this degree you will spend half your time studying Modern Languages and the other half studying Business and Management.
Studying Modern Languages will enable you to gain expertise in either one or two languages. Choose Language 1 from: French, German, Italian or Spanish. Choose Language 2 (if applicable) from Arabic, Chinese, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Russian, Portuguese or Spanish.
As well as studying the foundations of Business and Management, you will develop your linguistic and intercultural skills. You will normally spend your second or third year abroad, consolidating and enhancing your learning.
