Modern Language & Business & Management (Chinese) – (B.A.)

BA (Hons) Modern Language and Business & Management (Chinese) gives you a thorough grounding in the principles of business, management and economics and their application in the workplace in both European and global contexts
Students will also develop a firm grounding in Mandarin Chinese and in contemporary Chinese culture, society, economy and politics as well as China's changing relations with the West.
It is a four-year course with the third year being spent abroad under approved conditions in a country where your language of study is spoken. You may be able to weight your course towards either business and management or towards your language.
Students will study Mandarin Chinese throughout the course. The core language teaching in Mandarin Chinese enables you to develop various linguistic skills: speaking and writing accurately; understanding and analysing audio, video and written material; using different registers; speaking to a group with confidence; and translating with appropriate sensitivity.
At the same time, students can choose China-related topics in literature, film, cultural studies, politics, history, linguistics, economics, development studies, and business, drawing on the wide range of research expertise in Chinese Studies across the Faculty of Humanities. In this way, you will be able to tailor the course in keeping with the development of your interests.
