IELTs 7.0 with a minimum of 6.0 in reading and writing, and 5.5 in speaking and listening
Develop an in-depth knowledge and understanding of individual, group and organisational communication while also learning about the nature of language.
This course enables you to shape your study according to your strengths, interests and career ambitions. Combining two subjects can give your degree an international or industry perspective that will make you stand out in the graduate employment market.
Our course combinations are designed so that what you learn in one subject will complement and enhance what you learn in the other. In your final year you can choose either to split your time evenly between your two subjects, or to specialise in one.
Communication & Society and Linguistics are two subjects that have a natural synergy. The in-depth knowledge of language and its social functions you’ll gain from your Linguistics modules can enhance and directly influence your understanding of human communications and identity.
