The course involves extensive study of major literary texts, alongside training in linguistic skills.

The Modern Languages Faculty is one of the largest in the country, with a major research library (the Taylorian) and a modern, well-equipped Language Centre fitted with satellite and computer-assisted language learning facilities. Undergraduates also develop oral proficiency in the modern language by regular contact with native speakers.
Graduates in Classics and Modern Languages go on to careers including the media, teaching, acting, management, advertising and librarianship.
