Undergraduates

Students wishing to study a subject at Joint Honours can take up to 60 credits in each subject (e.g. French and Spanish, French and German, German and Spanish). Students who are not yet ready to narrow their focus can normally take between 40 and 80 credits in a subject which is outside their degree scheme. A popular choice of subject with students in our Department is a Beginners’ language module. If you take one of the Beginners’ courses successfully you are qualified to carry on with that language to degree level.

The flexibility of our degree schemes means that you do not have to commit yourselves to a final choice of degree scheme subject(s) until after your first-year examinations. As long as you have passed in 40 credits’ worth of modules in your chosen subject (including any core modules) you can carry on with that subject to degree level. The choice is yours although we will be at hand to advise you.

 

Please Note

Please note that while every effort will be made to ensure the availability of the courses described in the module booklets, the Department reserves the right to withdraw or replace courses in the light of staff changes.
