BA (Hons) Liberal Arts with Italian

Your degree will consist of three main strands: core interdisciplinary modules, Italian language modules connecting your learning with global perspectives, and open module choices for pursuing your intellectual interests.

The BA in Liberal Arts is designed to help you become a more versatile thinker and a more engaged global citizen, empowering you to find your unique academic identity and your intellectual role in addressing social and cultural concerns.

Explore the history, politics and culture that have shaped Italian-speaking countries around the world. You’ll develop the critical skills needed to prepare you for an international career.

If you want to extend your language learning even further, you can take extracurricular classes as part of our Languages for All programme.
