Spanish University of Southampton

Overview

At this Spanish MLang course offered by the University of Southampton you'll become fluent in Spanish and experience the rich diversity of Spanish and Hispanic culture. You will be able to choose a range of optional modules from linguistics, history, social and political studies, cultural studies and anthropology or study another language.

Using our language development system, we’ll make sure you begin at a level that matches your ability in Spanish. This means, if you're a strong student, you can start one of these languages from scratch. You’ll make rapid progress in both languages through this personalised approach.

You’ll have the freedom to tailor your degree to areas that interest you. You could, for instance, take a third language, take modules from other subject areas, or explore more about Spanish linguistics, history and culture.

You will spend your year abroad on a study placement with one of our partner universities in Spain or Mexico.
