Course summary
This unique and flexible course combines degree level learning of French, Spanish or Japanese language with the study of translation issues and media in todays fast-changing world. Your language learning will involve reading and listening comprehension, translation from and to English, precis and paraphrase work, the study of different styles and registers, lexical exercises, and oral work. In all of these activities, youll use contemporary rather than literary or historical materials. You'll put theory into practice on your year abroad as you push your language and communication skills to the next level, before choosing from advanced language modules in your final year. You may have the opportunity to take a third language as a non-credit module with certification. Depending on availability you can choose from Arabic, British Sign Language, French, German, Greek, Japanese, Spanish, Russian and Advanced English. Alongside developing your language competence, youll cover the theory and technique of translating and questions of style and register in a range of specialised areas. Youll look at issues associated with globalisation by looking at various translation types, including the transposition of text between languages, media and genres. Youll also have the opportunity to choose from a range of specialist modules in translation, media, culture and society.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 languages are spoken. During this year, youll deepen your experience of the languages and cultures by either studying at a local university (all languages), or taking up a teaching assistantship or suitable work placement (French and Spanish only).
