Welcome
At York we are driven by an interest in what language is, in every sense.
- Our teaching and research has been consistently highly-rated over a number of years.
- We are one of the few departments in the UK to combine the study of modern languages with linguistic study, and our BA degrees offer a variety of combinations of languages and linguistics.
- Our degrees equip our students with a variety of practical and analytical skills which have significant value in the modern world.
Our university encourages research-led teaching. We offer a wide range of courses guiding you into linguistic research in the final year BA modules and MA modules.
