The degrees focus on practical language skills, communication studies, European Studies and linguistics/translation studies.In both degrees two foreign or signed languages are studied to degree level. Level 3 is a compulsory placement year which is spent abroad at two partner institutions, or for British Sign Language (BSL) students, in work placement in the UK signing community for one of the two semesters. Students with only one language at post-Higher/A-Level follow an accelerated intensive language course during Level 1 and join the mainstream language courses from Level 2.
