Our approach to modern languages is both liberal and innovative, embracing a wide variety of single and joint degrees that enable our students to dedicate themselves to language studies or explore specific disciplines with language components.

Year abroad programmes allow students in the modern languages to encounter other cultures as well as develop professional qualifications that are accepted globally.

The Modern Languages Department has a number of interdisciplinary research centres and groups that seek to build on our established research track record. The Times 'Good University Guide' has consistently placed German in the Top 10 UK research units in this field and Hispanic Studies was rated 5 (excellent) in the last Research Assessment Exercise. Engaging in quality research that benefits student and scholar alike, Swansea's Modern Language Department is a first-class place to study.
