Students interested in a future in international relations, diplomacy, journalism, working with multinationals and global tech companies, with international NGOs, and in careers that demand a deeper understanding of regional cultures, history and politics should consider the degree in Middle Eastern and European Languages and Cultures.
This new degree course prepares students for such careers by providing in-depth knowledge of the languages and cultures of Europe, the Middle East and North Africa. Students study one European language and one Middle Eastern languages alongside the history and culture of the regions.
Students also engage with basic questions around how regions and societies relate to each other and interact culturally and politically. The study-abroad opportunity in year three provides on the ground, practical experience of living and studying in locations throughout these regions.
