What will I learn?

BA Arabic and Spanish is a four-year degree with a year of study abroad divided between a Middle Eastern country and Spanish-speaking country.The course combines compulsory language elements on both sides, delivered by native-speaker staff and with the possibility of pathways in business language, translation and interpreting.Alongside this, you will study the culture, politics, history, literature, popular culture, linguistics and religion of the areas in question.**Arabic**- You have the opportunity to achieve near-native proficiency in modern Arabic while studying the language within its cultural and historical context.- You will also look more widely at Arab culture and literature from the medieval period to the present day, and be introduced to social and cultural trends in the Arab Middle East and beyond.- The range of culture units offered across all years of the programme combine the study of the history, politics, literary, and visual culture of the Arab world and are taught by a range of specialists within these fields.- The course is carefully structured so you can measure your progress step by step. Learning modern Arabic also opens the door to the vast literature of classical Arabic, including religious and secular texts, and provides a perfect platform from which to learn one or more of the colloquial dialects. **Spanish** - Alongside your study of Spanish language, you will explore a range of options in visual culture (including painting and film), area-specific history, linguistics and literature. - The breadth of expertise among staff across Spanish and Latin American Studies means an unusually rich and broad curriculum. - Over 70% of our staff are first-language Spanish-speakers, and language courses are taught by native speakers with specific training. - You will also benefit from us working closely with the Centre for Latin American and Caribbean Studies and we maintain strong links with the Instituto Cervantes located here in Manchester.
