Module codes and Credits:
- All the modules below are worth 10 credits and are available at levels 1 to 4. When enrolling for credits, you should add the letter 'C', 'I', 'H' or 'M' at the end of the module code depending on your year of study:
- Level 1: C (e.g. MLT101C)
- Level 2: I (e.g. MLT101I)
- Level 3: H (e.g. MLT101H)
- Level 4: M (e.g. MLT101M) - Students enrolling as self-funders, members of staff and members of the public should add the letter 'C' at the end of the module code (e.g. MLT101C).
- Students on the Doctoral Development Programme should add 'M' at the end of the module code (e.g. MLT101M).
Entry requirements:
- Entry requirements are provided as an indication and equivalent qualifications or experience are also acceptable. Do not hesitate to contact the language co-ordinator for further guidance.
- Modules: A final mark of 48% is usually recommended for progression to the next level but a different minimum (>) or maximum (<) mark is sometimes required.
- GCSE / AS Level / A Level: The level that suits you best may be different if you obtained your qualification a long time ago or spent some time in a country where the language is spoken.
- CEF: The Common European Framework of reference for languages is used by many language teaching institutions and awarding bodies across Europe to define a learner’s level of proficiency in a language according to ‘can do’ statements, starting at level A1 for beginners up to level C2 for proficient users.
- Please note that you cannot be accepted on a module if your language level meets the entry requirements of a higher level module.
General language modules:
General language modules are open to all students (for credits or not), members of staff, and members of the public. They aim to develop language competence and cultural knowledge for professional and recreational purposes through small group weekly classes and guided independent learning.

French-English face-to-face Tandem modules:
Tandem modules offer native speakers of two different languages the opportunity to work together in order to learn each other's language and develop a knowledge of the target culture and community. Participants meet face-to-face with their partner once a week, in their own time and place, and help each other through friendly corrections and advice, completing a series of tasks based on their learning interest and needs as identified with the module supervisor.
English native speakers can only take these modules for credits, usually in addition to the corresponding general language module above. Erasmus French native speakers can, but do not need to take these modules for credits. Places on these modules depend on the availability of a partner in the target language. Please contact the Language Coordinator for further information.
