This wide-ranging joint honours programme gives you the opportunity to study two major world languages in their diverse cultural contexts. Both languages are among the ten most widely spoken in the world and have had a profound cultural influence beyond Europe.

Through intensive language study, including a year abroad, you will have the opportunity to acquire advanced spoken and written skills in both French and Spanish.

In addition to your language classes, you will explore aspects of French-speaking (Francophone) and Spanish-speaking cultures from the Middle Ages to the 21st century.

Our courses cover: literature, film and theatre; political history and social movements; philosophical ideas.

They include specialist options taught by leading experts in key disciplines, including decolonial, gender and film studies.
