Course programme

As well as students with A-levels in German and Italian, we also welcome students who have no previous knowledge of one or either language. Such applicants will generally require an A-level in another modern foreign language.

We run two pathways in both languages: one for students with an A-level or equivalent competence in the language; the other for students with little or no prior knowledge or learning of the language.

Year one

In year one, you take 60 credits in German and 60 in Italian, including a language module at either advanced or beginner level, depending on whether or not you have an A level in the language.

Our 'Key optional modules' indicate the modules you would be required to study depending on your subject specific A-levels as outlined above. Please note that for 2016/17, the Language element for both languages will increase from 20 to 40 credits.

This is due to the fact that some modules have limited numbers of places available, which are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis, while others have minimum student numbers required before they will run, to ensure that an appropriate quality of education can be delivered; some modules require students to have already taken particular subjects, and others are core or required on the programme you are taking. Modules may also be limited due to timetable clashes, and although the University works to minimise disruption to choice, we advise you to seek advice from the relevant School on the module choices available.
