Study Mode:Full-Time
Napier Code:U34511
UCAS:R8N1

Why choose this course?
Similar to our BA(Hons) International Business Languages degree, this course allows you to specialise in Entrepreneurship.

If you’re planning on a career in the global marketplace, this course is speaking your language. Its beauty is its flexibility: choose an intensive study of up to three languages (French, German, Spanish, Italian or English as a Foreign Language) or combine one or more with a specialised business study – in this case, Entrepreneurship. Whichever you choose, all your language studies will have a strong business focus.

But practice in language labs can only go so far. That’s why you’ll spend at least one semester – or perhaps an entire year – studying abroad at one of our partner institutions. Fully immersed in your major chosen language, you’ll accelerate your rate of learning while becoming familiar with the way business is conducted in that country – a valuable asset for anyone involved in international trade.
Skills

Through a variety of methods, you’ll learn written and spoken skills in your chosen languages. Role plays and presentations will help hone your verbal fluency, and you’ll learn to communicate and negotiate effectively in a business context. Should you choose to combine your language study with a business specialty, you’ll learn the principles of your chosen field in the context of international business. As well as these skills, you’ll also study the cultural and business environment of your chosen country and learn to relate accordingly.
Career Prospects
As Scotland’s Number One University for Graduate Employability (HESA 2008) and Graduate Prospects (The Independent and The Times University Guides for 2009), we can offer you a valuable head-start in your chosen career.

Being able to communicate fluently in another language opens to doors to increased commercial opportunities, which means you’ll enjoy greater employability, whether here in the UK or abroad. Your period of study overseas will generate contacts that may well lead to eventual employment prospects in the areas of:
marketing
human resource management
