French is one of the most beautiful romance languages.ÊOutside of France it is spoken as far afield as Canada, the Seychelles,ÊMadagascar and Mali.ÊIt is one of theÊofficial languages of the United Nations, and an important language in the EU.

Outside Spain, Spanish is the official language of all countries in South and Central America except Brazil, and is widely spoken in many parts of North America.

Studying theÊFrench and Hispanic Studies (Hons) programme from University of KentÊgives you a good opportunity to immerse yourself in both languages.ÊThere areÊmany overseas students on campus,Êand our proximity to airports, the Channel ports and the Eurostar terminals at Ashford and Ebbsfleet make it quick and easy to get to Paris, Brussels and Lille and from there onto the rest of mainland Europe.

Our facilities include multimedia laboratories, which offer a variety of interactive language learning programmes and dictionaries, and access toÊaudio, video and computer-assisted language learning facilities.

Between Stages 2 and 3 of your degree, you spend a year studying or working abroad in a French or Spanish-speaking country, usually six months in each country, where you can experience the cultures you have been studying first hand and improve your language skills.

French and Hispanic Studies is an ideal combination to enable you gain a broad cultural understanding and to embark on an international career.

Careers

The ability to speak two European languages other than English is a key asset in the global employment market, and companies view a graduate with overseas experience as more employable. Through your studies, you also acquire many of the transferable skills considered essential by graduate employers. These include the ability to work independently and as part of a team, the confidence to offer creative solutions when faced with challenges and the ability to express your ideas with clarity and passion.

There are numerous employment prospects open to languages graduates, and popular choices include teaching either French or Spanish, or teaching English as a foreign language; translation and interpreting, working in international organisations and going into the Armed Forces. Further study options often include a PGCE, TEFL, a PhD or Master's in various aspects of language and culture, or another subject altogether.

British Council Teaching Assistantships are available to year abroad students spending their year abroad in Spain and France. The French department also has places for Kent graduates to teach English at various universities in France.
