Here's what University of Bristol says about its International Business Management and Modern Languages course.
We live and work in a world characterised by rapid technological and societal change on a global scale. To be effective in business and management in a multinational environment requires an understanding of the cultural, linguistic, economic, political and social contexts in which organisations operate, both within and across national borders.
BA International Business Management and Modern Languages enables you to combine your study of business with the study of French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Russian or Spanish.
All languages can be studied from beginners' level or post-A level (or the equivalent), apart from Portuguese, which is offered from beginners' level only.
The degree will help you develop the intellectual, analytical, critical and employability skills you will need to succeed as a manager or leader in many careers across different sectors. A knowledge of a language will allow you direct access to the cultural production, political debates and economic data from the culture(s) in which it is spoken.
All modern languages students have access to our state-of-the-art Multimedia Centre. You can also access extracurricular activities such as talks by visiting speakers, societies, language cafes, student newspapers, and talent shows.

Excellent night life + gay scene. Also lots of excellent art events (markets, little arthouse cinemas, museums) if you're so inclined. Not crazy-busy, for a city.

Low-income, and so was offered a lot of additional assistance. Still, Bristol is quite an expensive place to live, so do be wary.

Welfare services were fantastic with me, fast-tracked my transfer to Student Health Services and got me a same-day appointment. Tutors and lecturers have also, as mentioned, been very supportive and down-to-earth, even in their criticisms.

Facilities are beautiful, usually very clean. Physics and philosophy buildings have lovely little gardens. Will's Memorial library is gorgeous and makes a very, very cosy study space. Incredibly easy to reserve, borrow, & auto-renew books through the library system. Some 24-hour libraries too, which...

Decently-structured timetable: not too overwhelming, but enough things on each day to justify commuting. Had enough time to get to each location. Feedback was generally very good---better on the maths side I would say, however my first philosophy essay received some incredibly thorough feedback. Lec...

Are you thinking of applying to this university?
Before you do, it's a good idea to go to an open day. You can have a good look around campus, getting a better idea of what it's like to study there. You'll meet current students and staff and get the chance to ask them questions.
Universities will list upcoming open days on their websites. Most will also have virtual open days; these are a great alternative if you really can't get there in person. For tips on preparing for open days, check the advice section here on The Uni Guide.
