History and Modern Languages (One Language), BA (Hons), with study abroad

This programme integrates a passion for history with studies in French, German, or Spanish, drawing on expertise across historical periods from the Classical era to the present and global regions. Students select topics aligned with their interests, while learning a modern language—potentially a new one—offers cultural immersion, enhanced teaching, and funding for an abroad course at the end of the first year. A year abroad in a workplace, with the British Council, or at a partner university develops key skills, including analysing viewpoints, presenting arguments, collaborating, and conducting primary research in the chosen language.The curriculum combines compulsory and optional modules, such as World Histories Introduced, Ancient Rome, and Language Acquisition, with opportunities for interdisciplinary studies. Assessment methods include lectures, classes, tutorials, coursework, individual and group projects, and independent learning, all designed to build essential professional competencies.
