Content

This programme is studied over 4 years, including a year abroad. This enables us to build choice and flexibility into your studies, giving you time to explore options, find what you like and build your skills.

Your first two years will be your pre-honours years. They will give you a good grounding in both your languages and in Chinese and Francophone studies. You will also gain research skills and choose an option course from a wide range of disciplines.

Your final two years will be your honours years. You will spend Year 3 abroad, gaining lived experience of Chinese and French-speaking cultures. Year 4 will be tailored to your interests in specific topics or approaches to Chinese and Francophone studies. You will also further develop your language and translation skills.
