Course description

BA (Hons) Linguistics and Portuguese

The course can be studied as either a Single Honours course or as part of a Joint Honours course alongside a Modern Language.  The latter are 4 year courses with the third year spent abroad under approved conditions in a country where the target language of study is spoken.  In the first year, equal time is spent on both subject areas but this balance can be swayed in subsequent years with as much as up to two thirds being spent on either/or subject.

  • In Portuguese students will study either European or Brazillian Portuguese throughout the course. Alongside a range of cultural modules in areas such as contemporary culture, colonialism, literature and cinema from Brazil, Mozambique and Portugal.
