3-Term Pathway - International Foundation Year in Social Sciences and Humanities - Continue to Bachelor of Arts - Spanish Studies and Linguistics

This program will prepare students for entry to Year 1 of an undergraduate degree in a wide range of subjects, including many based at the £10m LICA building. Popular subjects include law, film studies, sociology, linguistics and politics.

This four-year combined degree is provided by the Department of Languages and Cultures and the highly-ranked Department of Linguistics and English Language. It includes an international placement in year 3. A year abroad gives students the unique opportunity to immerse yourself in the language and culture. Students don’t need to have studied Spanish before as there is an Intensive course offered for beginners.

In Spanish Studies the aim to help students become truly fluent. Taking Linguistics in tandem with Spanish Studies will give students increased awareness of the grammar of the language and allow them to really understand the structure of both English, Spanish, and a wide range of other languages from around the world.

Beginners Languages

Studying a language from beginners level is somewhat intense in nature so Lancaster only allows students to study one language from beginners level. Please bear this in mind when looking at the first year module options. If students apply to study a degree with a language from beginners level, their optional modules will only include higher level languages and modules in other subject areas.
