Program overview

What UCL says about their program:

The Scandinavian Studies and Latin programme at UCL offers a unique blend of language and cultural studies. This undergraduate degree is designed to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of both Scandinavian languages and Latin, studied in a balanced 50/50 ratio.

The curriculum focuses on developing near-native skills in a chosen Scandinavian language, alongside a strong foundation in Latin. Students will engage in compulsory modules that cover literature, culture, history, and linguistics, with opportunities to explore optional modules in later years.

This programme is ideal for those interested in deepening their knowledge of Scandinavian culture and classical languages. Graduates can expect to pursue careers that value linguistic proficiency and cultural understanding, preparing them for various roles in education, translation, and cultural exchange.
