Italian can be studied at joint honours level in combination with another language or a variety of other subjects, with both subjects studied in equal proportions. This Italian degree course, with the opportunity to study another major subject, will provide you with advanced skills in the Italian language and a broad range of specialised and detailed insights into the culture, society and history that go with it. The degree has language at the heart of it, with core modules developing the key oral, aural and written skills every year. These modules also foster cultural awareness, which you will need for your year abroad, and later on, for the world of work.
