Our Chinese and Linguistics BA trains you to be a competent linguist ready to enter graduate employment.<br/><br/>Our degree offers the exciting combination of the study of Chinese language and culture alongside the wider study of the forms, structures and varieties of language itself.<br/><br/>Youll develop a high level of competence in oral and written communication in Chinese, proficiency in language transfer skills, and a thorough knowledge of Chinese culture. On graduation, youll be able to thrive linguistically in diverse cultural situations.<br/><br/>Youll study an integrated curriculum with a focus on applied language skills and cultural studies, supported by a rigorous development of your foreign languages skills in all areas. We teach in an integrated interdisciplinary way, exploring the connections between language and culture and the broader historical and cross-cultural contexts in which they are produced. <br/><br/>We place particular emphasis on employability and the contemporary cultural context, and offer high-quality teaching in all language skills.<br/><br/>The linguistics component of your combined degree will develop your understanding and knowledge of language to an advanced and sophisticated level, while fostering and enhancing your skills in using English.<br/><br/>Between Years 2 and 3, youll have the option to spend a full academic year abroad at one of our partner institutions, or undertake an approved form of employment in a country where Chinese is the official language, such as China or Hong Kong. You may work as a paid language assistant in a foreign school or undertake a work (or volunteering) placement, both of which give you a valuable opportunity to boost your employability while improving your language competence. <br/><br/>Our Chinese courses are only available to beginner or intermediate entrants – intermediate entrants are students who have obtained or might be studying for an A level in Chinese, or who might have achieved the equivalent of HSK Chinese Proficiency Test Level 3.
