However, timetable restrictions apply, and therefore the subject cannot be taken together with Ancient History, and Economics. This subject is compulsory for the degrees in English Language Studies, Language and Communication, Communication, and Joint Honours with Language Studies.
All students take both double modules.
This double module is an introduction to language and culture. We examine a range of approaches which help explain the complex, but fascinating relationship between language and social life. These are all important areas of understanding for a wide range of academic disciplines such as sociology, media, education, psychology, politics, philosophy, language studies, and human communication. The courses provides an essential background for anyone going on to study language in more detail, literature in any language, social development and interaction, or human communication.
