Year Abroad

The year abroad is a compulsory element of our four-year language degrees. 

In your third year, you'll enhance your studies by living in a country where your degree language is spoken. During this year, you’ll deepen your experience of the language and culture by either studying at a local university (all languages) or taking up a teaching assistantship or suitable work placement (French and Spanish only). Through this opportunity you'll enhance your language skills, while also developing your intercultural awareness, resourcefulness and flexibility. It’s also a great way to demonstrate your resilience, confidence, and ability to thrive in an international setting to future employers.  

We’ve exchange links with many universities in France and Spain, as well as links with universities in Japan, Canada, and Latin America. If you're studying Japanese, you'll attend one of our partner universities in Japan.
