What it isYou study one modern language in depth — French, Spanish and Latin American culture, or Italian — alongside English literature and related humanities. Each stream lets you focus on the language itself, its literature, and the history and culture of regions where it's spoken. This suits you if you want genuine fluency in a second language combined with understanding of its cultural context, rather than a broad survey of multiple languages.You design your own degree by combining courses from different departments rather than following a single major. This program emphasizes translation studies and modern languages, so you can build expertise across multiple fields while deepening language skills. It suits students who are curious about how different subjects connect and want more control over what they study than a traditional single-major program offers.This program lets you design your own degree by combining courses across different subjects — especially languages, translation, and cultural studies — rather than following one set path. You pick your own focus and mix disciplines in ways that suit your interests and goals. It works well for students who know they want broad knowledge across multiple fields or who haven't settled on a single major yet.
