Overview

Combine this with History which introduces you to our human behaviour. There are plenty of wide ranging careers to choose from including many utilising language skills fully.

Key Features

History and Language and Linguistics at the University of Aberdeen will introduce you to, among other things, how human language and speech may have evolved, the complex functions and structures of language in its role as a bridge between sound and meaning. You will study the ways in which we acquire languages as children and adults, the ways in which languages vary and the mechanisms by which they change over time.

History at Aberdeen offers the opportunity to immerse yourself in rich study of all aspects of human adventure in the past, exploring the medieval, early modern and modern periods in Scotland, Europe, America, Asia and Africa. You will study at a university steeped in 500 years of history.
