Languages

Studying the language and culture of another country will give you insights into different ways of thinking and will help you to broaden your horizons. It is therefore an ideal partner to courses such as English, Politics,History, Business,Media andTourism. The ability to speak another language will enhance your employment prospects whatever you choose to do. Media,marketing, PR, export/import and tourism/hospitality for example are just some of the industries that regard language as positive asset. There are many opportunities in interpreting and translating. If you are a bilingual speaker of another language then we can arrange for you to gain additional qualifications.

We also offer students the opportunity to pick up a community language. We have over 19 to choose from such as Italian, German, Russian, Chinese, Polish and Urdu. These community languages are particularly suited to native speakers or to students who are extremely able in the chosen language.
