Additional information
On our BA History and Language you can combine the study of history with a modern language (French, German, Italian, Japanese or Spanish) and its associated culture. 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.
