Course Description
If you are a good linguist and want to achieve a high level of proficiency in several languages, our flagship multi-language programme will be ideal for you. This is a 100% Single Honours programme and cannot be studied on a 75%, 50%, or 25% basis; if you would like to focus on one or two of our languages, please see the individual entries for those languages.
Students following Modern Languages (Triple Subject) study at least two languages from advanced level, plus a third language from beginners’ or advanced level, or they study one language from advanced level and two languages from beginners’ level. You also have the option to start a new beginners’ language in Year Two.
In this programme, you may study French, German, Spanish, Chinese and Italian from beginners’ or A level; and Catalan, Basque and Portuguese can be taken from beginners’ level.* You will learn to speak, listen, read, write and translate to a high level in your chosen languages. There is an emphasis on languages in the context of contemporary culture and society and on their social and professional relevance. In each year of your studies, you will take six language modules (two per language), and choose two optional modules from different language areas.
The programme includes a compulsory Year Abroad split between at least two of your languages. You may spend the time abroad at a university, as an assistant in a school, or on a work placement.
- Please check with the University of Liverpool’s central admissions team for specific language combinations. Please note if you would like to study ONE of following: Catalan, Basque or Portuguese, then Spanish is also required within your triple language combination.
If you are interested in studying Spanish with TWO other Hispanic Studies languages (Catalan, Basque, Portuguese) please apply for Hispanic Studies BA at the University of Liverpool (UCAS code RR45) as this combination is available within Hispanic Studies but not the Modern Languages (Triple Subject) BA degree. If you are interested in studying Chinese from beginners’ level, this must be studied with two other languages at advanced level within the Modern Languages (Triple Subject) BA degree.
