Our aim at the School of Modern Languages is to develop and educate our students to become ‘global citizens’. In addition to developing high-level language skills, our BA Italian and Portuguese programme allows you to gain an in-depth intercultural understanding that encompasses a specific knowledge of Italian and Portuguese culture. You will develop high-level communication and critical-thinking skills, and foster resilience and independence through time spent in immersive foreign language contexts.
Italy and Portugal are major actors on the European and world stage, possessing rich and sophisticated cultures. Italian and Portuguese are both one of the official working languages of the European community and still a global language of culture and diplomacy. By studying Italian combined with Portuguese you will gain a wealth of transferable skills and knowledge beneficial to the world of employment, making you competitive and attractive in an increasingly global workforce and opening the doors to a variety of career paths. |
