Year Abroad

The year abroad is a compulsory element of our four-year language degrees.

In your third year, you'll enhance your studies by living in a country where your degree language is spoken. During this year, you’ll deepen your experience of the language and culture by either studying at a local university (all languages) or taking up a teaching assistantship or suitable work placement (French and Spanish only). Through this opportunity you'll enhance your language skills, while also developing your intercultural awareness, resourcefulness and flexibility. It’s also a great way to demonstrate your resilience, confidence, and ability to thrive in an international setting to future employers.

We’ve exchange links with many universities in France and Spain, as well as links with universities in Japan, Canada, and Latin America. If you're studying Japanese, you'll attend one of our partner universities in Japan.

Important Information

Whilst the University will make every effort to offer the modules listed, changes may sometimes be made arising from the annual monitoring, review and update of modules. Where this activity leads to significant (but not minor) changes to programmes and their constituent modules, the University will endeavour to consult with students and others. It is also possible that the University may not be able to offer a module for reasons outside of its control, such as the illness of a member of staff. In some cases optional modules can have limited places available and so you may be asked to make additional module choices in the event you do not gain a place on your first choice. Where this is the case, the University will inform students.

In year two, you’ll begin the process of specialisation while pushing your language fluency to the next level and learning more about the cultures where your chosen language is spoken. In business, you'll choose from topics on management and organisation or principles of marketing. You’ll also develop expertise in the areas that interest you most across language and culture, choosing from topics in global communication, subtitling and dubbing, translation and media. You can also choose to start learning a new language.

Teaching and Learning, and Assessment

Teaching and Learning

You'll begin your degree by developing core academic and language skills through lectures, interactive seminars, oral classes, workshops, independent study, and groupwork in year one.

In year two, you'll specialise through optional modules taught in smaller groups, balancing theory and practice while strengthening your research, writing, groupwork, and presentation abilities.

Your year three is spent abroad, deepening your language proficiency and cultural understanding as you adapt to new environments, manage your own studies and daily life, and gain confidence living, studying, or working independently in another country.

In year four, your learning becomes more advanced and professionally focused through case studies, practical projects, and extended written work, with opportunities to collaborate with local or international organisations and, if you choose, complete an independent dissertation.

Assessment

Across the degree, assessment is designed to build your linguistic, intercultural, and business skills progressively. In year one, you'll undertake language tests, a case study report, group projects, and written and spoken coursework to establish strong foundations in linguistic ability, intercultural communication, and understanding the business environment. In year two, assessments diversify depending on your chosen modules and may include written and oral language exams, essays, reports, presentations, a marketing exam, group projects, or creating a management scenario.

During your year abroad, you'll complete the compulsory year abroad module, which provides structured support and ensures your continued academic progress while overseas. You must pass this module and can be reassessed at UEA if you fail.

In your final year, you'll tackle a wide range of advanced assessments. Also, there'd be a global leadership project, with further opportunities to produce work like business ethics reports, entrepreneurial proposals, or brand analysis and relaunch strategies. Your assessments are designed to refine your specialisms and prepare you for your future career.
