About the course

Education transforms attitudes and worldviews. Paired with language study, it fosters understanding of diverse societies and cultures while enhancing communication across cultural and linguistic boundaries. This programme invites you to actively develop as a critical and creative thinker, gaining deep insights into teaching and learning from international and intercultural perspectives. You will be taught by field experts.The curriculum integrates in-depth analysis of cultural and social practices in target-language communities with advanced plurilingual skills. You will examine power structures, norms, and identities shaping education, critically evaluating language- and culture-related issues. The Year Abroad boosts fluency, offers transcultural immersion, and builds adaptability, resilience, and resourcefulness. Graduates acquire research literacy, enquiry, and professional communication skills for roles in teaching, policy, translation, or international relations. While the BA does not confer qualified teacher status, it positions you well for a PGCE in Primary or Secondary Modern Foreign Languages.
