During your foundation year you will explore what it means to be human – studying a range of humanities and social science topics to introduce you to university-level study. You will start the degree in your second year covering topics such as how language is used in everyday communication, how language has developed over time, the effect of dialect and accent on identity, and the challenge of learning or teaching new languages. Throughout your degree you will have an academic mentor who will provide you with pastoral and academic support.
