About this course
Spanish is one of the most widely spoken languages in the world; imagine being able to communicate and connect with people in over 20 countries.
This course is designed for talented UK students with a love of Hispanic languages and cultures but whose personal circumstances make achieving our usual entry requirements difficult. This could be your opportunity to study your subject of choice at a top 20 UK university (Times Higher Education Rankings 2023).
Through a range of engaging modules spanning the arts and humanities, the foundation year gives you an opportunity to develop key skills such as communication, critical thinking, teamwork, and digital capability. Your foundation year tutors will support you in developing the necessary skills, knowledge and confidence for undergraduate study.
During the foundation year, you will be a full member of the university, with all the opportunities this offers, including the same accommodation options as direct-entry students.
Upon progressing from the foundation year to the four-year Hispanic Studies BA you'll immerse yourself in not only the language but also Latin American history and culture through music, literature, film and theatre.
