Course summary

An undergraduate BA Modern Languages and English Literature degree at the University of Birmingham prepares you to live and work as an engaged citizen of the world. The programme blends language and culture with immersive learning in the imaginative worlds of writers from a diverse selection of cultures and societies past and present.Studying a modern language from beginner or advanced level (French, German, Italian, Russian, or Portuguese), alongside English is highly complementary and an exciting way to contextualise your knowledge in each discipline. At Birmingham, undergraduate language is taught through the lens of the target culture's literature, history, politics and society, and through total immersion on the Year Abroad. Please note that not all combinations are available due to timetable restrictions. Find out more about your chosen combination.By studying Modern Languages as a Joint Honours degree with English Literature, the programme allows you to study the ways in which literary culture has engaged with and shaped society and how it continues to do so today. You will also have the opportunity to take our specialist second-year undergraduate Shakespeare module and the possibility of participating in our residential trip in Stratford-upon-Avon.
