Course Overview
Learning modern Chinese (Mandarin) is not part of this programme, which means that students have more time to study a greater number of historical modules. However, interested students still have the option to learn Chinese alongside their studies in the Confucius Institute, which offers a range of extracurricular language courses at various levels of proficiency.
Students on this course also have the option to spend the second semester of their second year at a university abroad as part of the University's study abroad schemes.
