Modern Languages / History

About this course

Modern languages and history together offer a rich intellectual combination, using linguistic and cultural analysis alongside historical method to understand human experience across time and geography. Languages give you direct access to sources, literatures, and perspectives in their original form, while history develops the skills of evidence evaluation, causal reasoning, and contextual understanding needed to make sense of the societies those languages have shaped. The combination produces graduates who are both globally minded and historically literate.

Aberystwyth has a long tradition of language teach
