Study abroad

Alice Gonzales -  Grenoble Bastille France

When studying linguistics and phonetics, or combining linguistics with English language or philosophy, you'll have the opportunity to spend time abroad. This is usually an extra academic year taken after your second year of study and extending your degree to four years.

We have partnerships with over 300 universities across the world and popular destinations for our students include Europe, the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Hong Kong, South Africa and Latin America.

The BA Modern Languages and Linguistics degree includes spending a year abroad in a country where your chosen language is spoken. It’s the perfect way to sharpen and refine your language skills every day, whilst immersing yourself in another culture. For many of our language students, this unique experience is the highlight of their degree.

The year abroad was one of the most enjoyable aspects of my degree. I spent seven months in Brittany as an English Language Assistant, and although I now know that I never want to teach again, I had a fantastic time.
