The BA South East Asian Studies (Combined Honours) with year abroad is a four-year programme that strikes an exciting balance between the study of a South East Asian language (Burmese, Indonesian, Khmer, Thai or Vietnamese), the cultures of the region and a second subject in another discipline.
Competence in a South East Asian language is developed as a tool for exploring the culture for which a spoken language is a vehicle. The compulsory year abroad in South East Asia is intended to achieve an all-round improvement in students’ language skills, allowing them to work at a more advanced level of linguistic competence on cinematic, literary and cultural studies texts when they return to completed their fourth year of study. |
