Career paths
Perhaps languages will be central to your career, for example if you work in teaching, translation or academia. Perhaps languages will make up a smaller - but nonetheless important - part of what you do in your day to day life. Perhaps you will use the other skills learned in your degree to work in a profession that is not directly related to languages.
Whatever path you choose to take, from the starting point of our excellent teaching and support, you can go on to flourish in a wide range of careers.
Developing your skillsYou will, of course, graduate from Sheffield with the foreign language expertise to make you stand out in an increasingly competitive job market. However, a language degree from the University of Sheffield is about so much more than mastering another tongue. The experience and skill set developed on your course will equip you for a range of graduate careers. What skills will I learn with a languages degree at Sheffield? |
