Careers

Recent surveys show that language graduates are less likely to be unemployed than those in other disciplines.

Today's global economy means that businesses and corporations all over the world are keen to recruit people with language skills.

Employers not only value an employee's ability to communicate in another language, but also the excellent communication and interpersonal skills language students develop during their studies.

Modern Language Graduates have a wide choice of careers open to them.  They may pursue careers closely related to the language, such as interpreting, translating or teaching but they will also find that qualifications in a modern language are useful in many other fields, amongst the most common of which are travel and tourism, finance, sales and marketing, management services, journalism, public relations, ICT, Law, or administrative institutions of the European Union.
