Classics with German

A combined degree with Classics (75%) enables you to explore the languages and literature of the Ancient World with specialist tuition in Latin and Greek. Depending on your previous experience, can begin languages from scratch, or continue at higher levels, consolidating linguistic knowledge and exploring classical literature in the original. Alongside your core language modules, you can choose to explore wider literary and cultural themes, ancient material culture and society, or other ancient languages (Egyptian, Akkadian and Sumerian). In third year, a capstone project enables you to draw your knowledge and research skills together around a topic of your choice.<br/><br/>Our Minor in German (25% of your degree) enables you to attain a proficient level by progressing through structured and immersive language training. You will take German language from beginners or advanced level, developing advanced skills in writing, reading, speaking and listening, as well as an awareness of regional linguistic variations and the societies and cultures of German-speaking countries. An optional Year Abroad is spent in a German-speaking country as a student at a university, an assistant in a school, or on a work placement. <br/><br/>Combined Degrees<br/>Most Combined Degrees allow you to adapt the weighting of each by 25% after the first year, helping you to keep your options open. Please note, however, students studying either a Business or Economics pathway in combination with another subject cannot increase from 25% to 50% or from 50% to 75% and it is not possible to transfer from a 50% to 75% Law.
