Spanish ranks as the world's second most commonly spoken language and holds official status in over 20 nations. Glasgow's faculty addresses diverse subjects, allowing students to collaborate with native Spanish speakers from various regions. The School of Modern Languages & Cultures provides degree programs in French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, and Spanish. Students can pursue French, German, Italian, or Spanish as standalone majors or combine them with other disciplines for joint degrees. Portuguese and Russian are exclusively offered as joint degree options, requiring pairing with another subject. Optional courses include Catalan, Chinese (Mandarin), Czech, and Polish, which students can integrate into their degree programs. First-year students typically enroll in either Beginner-level courses (for those with no prior experience or only National 5/GCSE equivalent) or Non-Beginner courses (for students with recent Higher/A-level grade B qualifications).
Language program graduates pursue careers across various sectors such as: media, arts institutions, education/teaching, civil service fast-track programs, banking, management, public relations
and diplomatic services.
Employers highly appreciate the adaptable skills acquired through language degrees. Earning a degree from the School of Modern Languages & Cultures provides students with fresh perspectives on global affairs.
