Modern Languages BA University of Leicester

Program Description

Our BA Modern Languages is designed to allow you to study two or three languages, from French, Italian and Spanish. It is a highly flexible course, allowing you to tailor your degree according to your interests. You'll build your linguistic skills while developing your understanding of the social, political, and cultural forces that have shaped contemporary France and the Francophone world, Italy, and the Hispanic world. Leicester is in the Guardian University Guide 2022's top 20 for Modern Languages and we rank consistently highly for student satisfaction in the annual National Student Survey. In addition, we offer you a unique opportunity at the end of your first year, you will attend one of our partly-funded two-week Summer Schools where you will be able to immerse yourself in the language and culture of one of your chosen languages. If you choose to study one of the two languages at beginner’s level you will spend the summer school in the country of your beginner’s language. If you are studying two languages at advanced level, you may chose which one of those countries to visit.
