Language & Communication Studies BA (Hons)

If you have an interest in languages and love learning about other cultures, if you enjoy new experiences and challenging yourself then why place limits on your ambitions? The world is a big place and this course offers you the chance to gain the skills and knowledge to live, work and thrive almost anywhere you choose.
Our Languages & Communication Studies programme will give you the knowledge, experience and confidence to live and work internationally as a thoughtful and engaged citizen of the world. Within the course you will be able to learn up to two languages – choosing from British Sign Language (BSL), Japanese or Korean – whilst gaining insight into a variety of sociocultural language and communication practices. You can specialise in one of your chosen languages in your second year or continue both (or neither) whilst you also learn about topics like the language of persuasion and how language interacts with ideas of gender and sexuality. In your third year you’ll learn how language varies according to speaker and situation and about social and political issues in language and education.
