Theatre and Modern Languages Bachelor of Arts (with Honours) - BA (Hons)

This exciting joint honours degree enables you to combine study of theatre with a language (French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Russian or Spanish) and its related culture(s).

All languages can be studied from beginners' level or post-A level (or the equivalent), apart from Portuguese, which is offered from beginners' level only. You choose your language after you accept an offer.

Both the School of Modern Languages and the Department of Theatre encourage strong synergy between research and teaching, resulting in a vibrant learning environment as staff incorporate new research into their classes.

Through critical and historical frameworks, practical workshops, performance opportunities, and production-based tasks, the theatre side of your degree will help you build your understanding and practical skills. Opportunities to engage with professional theatre-makers and the department's museum-accredited archive, the Theatre Collection, will allow you to develop your critical and practical skills further while diversifying your awareness of potential future careers.

On the modern languages side of your degree, you will follow a structured language course in your chosen language, as well as explore the richness of the cultures in which it is spoken.

Through your study at Bristol and the experience you will gain on your year abroad, you will build invaluable interpersonal and intercultural skills that will support your personal and professional development and open up a world of international career opportunities, whichever sector you go on to work in.

Theatre and modern languages at Bristol are both vibrant academic communities that will give you the opportunity to participate in research and extracurricular activities such as performances, talks, workshops, student societies, language cafés, student newspapers and talent shows. As a modern languages student, you will also have access to the school's wonderful Multimedia Centre, complete with a video editing suite, language lab facilities, extensive foreign-language film collection and mini-cinema.
