What Is a Modern Languages Degree?

Nowadays, more and more students start to pursue a degree in modern languages. A modern languages degree is not only related to learning a new language but also understand the cultural context of the countries in which the language is spoken. 

Candidates studying a modern languages course will also be given knowledge and experience of the political and historical contexts of a particular region. On top of that, the use of literary texts and media will develop not only their skills but also their perception about learning a different language.

Benefits of a Modern Languages Degree

Due to the increased globalisation, there is a high demand for modern languages graduates. The ability to communicate in another language and understand its background is a major advantage.

Modern Language courses are designed to give students transferable skills, which can be applied in all areas of activity. Candidates will have high communication skills, accompanied by data collection and interpreting skills, which are appreciated by employers, regardless of your career choice.

Modern Languages Degree Structure

Modern Languages Degrees are four years commitments, out of which one semester or a year should be spent abroad – in a partnered institution. This gives students the opportunity to practice the language they are studying and understand a new culture. 

Modern Languages is a degree that can be studied either as a single honour degree or a joint honour degree. This gives students the ability to combine modern language with another course such as politics, literature, history and many others.

    My university offers a large selection of modern languages and cultures, an extended area for Erasmus projectsThe Faculty of Philosophy and Humanities consists of many classrooms, including a patio, 2 libraries and a cafeteria with coffee machines.Despite this, what my university lacks is organization on the annual program, many subjects are needlessly repeated over the years and in some fields professors are not adequate.

    Learning from the most notable professors in East Asian Studies from Spain

    Considering that my main goal was to pursue this postgraduate degree in order to advance my career as a researcher, the plan that the University of Granada is among the most interesting in Spain. Having a wide range of professors from different universities in Spain, and even China and the USA, the degree provides an interesting background to continue researching. The facilities provided by the University were acceptable and the schedule was demanding yet clear, particularly knowing that many professors are not residing in Granada for most of the year. Communication with most of the faculty was fluid and there was a high level of implication by many professors. At the same time, many of the students of this M.A. come from China which gives way to an interesting intercultural dialogue in and outside the classroom. Although many things could be improved, especially the curriculum, which has to be revised after a decade, I think that this M.A. provides a good experience for those with some experience in the field to further develop their projects. Nevertheless, I wouldn’t recommend this program to people who were interested in acquiring a high level of command of the languages imparted, since the faculty knows that due to a variety of backgrounds they cannot force a highly proficient level in demanding languages such as Chinese and Japanese.
