Overview

Dutch is also an official language in Suriname and to a large extent mutually intelligible with Afrikaans, one of South Africa’s languages. Students graduate as fluent and interculturally competent speakers of this global language

Your learning

We teach Dutch using modern communicative methods to develop fluency, accuracy and an understanding of stylistic issues. Literature, history, linguistics and cultural studies are taught through a mixture of seminars, group work, web-based courses and tutorials. You will be able to become involved with VirtualDutch, a collaborative teaching network of Dutch departments across the country.

Assessment

Modules of the Dutch course offered at the University College London (UCL) are assessed by various methods: written and oral/aural examinations, essays, presentations and project work.

Careers

A substantial number of our graduates use their language skills in a variety of contexts, such as public relations (often for multinational companies, many of which have Dutch origins), insurance, banking, political and cultural institutions, or teaching and translating. Some graduates go on to Master's or PhD programmes.

There is significant and growing demand for Dutch-speaking graduates, as evidenced by the regular requests the department receives from employers. In the English-speaking context, a university graduate with a good command of Dutch is rare, giving the graduate a major and distinguishing asset.
