About this course
This degree will give you complete proficiency in German and you’ll gain valuable experience spending a year living and working in a foreign country.
Following our system of language development, you’ll start at a level that matches your ability in German. This means we can personalise your learning so you make the best progress.
You’ll also have all the resources you need to support you in our excellent Centre for Language Study.
You’ll have the freedom to tailor your degree to areas that interest you. Whether you want to learn another language, take modules from other subject areas, improve your employability skills, or explore German culture, society, or history, the choice will be yours.
In your year abroad you can choose to work as an English assistant in a school, study at a university or take a work placement. Our partner universities in the Erasmus programme are in Germany and Austria.
This course has a strong focus on employability. You’ll have the option to take practical modules looking at teaching, you could take advantage of our vacation work placement schemes and you’ll develop a wide range of transferable skills.
