Course summary

What this course is about

UCAS code: QA41

Here's what University of Westminster, London says about its Arabic and English course.

At Westminster, we'll train you to become a competent linguist and communicator, ready to enter graduate employment. We place particular emphasis on employability, offering high-quality teaching in all languages skills alongside knowledge and understanding of contemporary cultural contexts.

This course offers you the opportunity to combine the study of Arabic with English. It will enable you to achieve proficiency in Arabic, develop linguistic and cultural knowledge of both languages, and build knowledge and understanding of linguistic, literary, and cultural studies.

Our Arabic courses are designed for beginner or 'false beginner' entrants – students who may be able to read the Arabic script, and/or have completed the equivalent of one or two years' part-time study. We may need to test you to determine your entry point.

You’ll study languages, literatures and cultures in an integrated interdisciplinary way, exploring the connections between them and the broader historical and cross-cultural contexts in which they are produced. You’ll also consider the theoretical tools of textual, cultural, and linguistic analysis in detail.

You'll master oral and written communication, linguistic and literary knowledge, and language transfer skills, ensuring you graduate well-equipped to communicate and work in diverse cultural settings.

One of the highlights of studying languages at Westminster is the opportunity to embark on a transformative international experience. Flexible opportunities can include short fully funded field trips or summer schools, a semester spent studying abroad in the second year, and/or a year-long international experience after your second year of study.

You'll benefit from studying in the heart of a multilingual city, where over 300 languages are spoken, offering unique opportunities for linguistic exploration.

Overall, the transferable and cognitive skills gained through studying this course will equip you for lifelong personal and professional development.

Timetable, course structure and contents where great, although many of the teachers seem to know a lot and have a lot of expertise on their subject, but have not teaching qualities to make content interactive and appealing
