Why study Linguistics with Russian at Warwick?

  • Studying with both the Centre for Applied Linguistics and the School of Modern Languages and Cultures, you will gain expertise in the study of linguistics alongside a very strong language foundation.
  • This interdisciplinary degree will enable you to further deepen your experience through a year of study abroad and/or work placement abroad.
  • In both departments you will study with staff who are internationally renowned for their research and teaching, and who are regularly invited to speak at prestigious conferences and training workshops around the world.
  • We have high levels of student satisfaction, scoring 93% in the most recent National Student Survey.
Russian can only be taken at beginner level or post-GCSE level maximum. You will develop your linguistic skills by taking a language module in your first, second and fourth year. By the end of the course you will be expected to reach B2 standard (CEFR) in Russian (this approximates to A Level).

Linguistics is the study of how language works. In the first year you will learn how language is structured (syntax), how we use it to construct meaning (semantics), how context contributes to meaning (pragmatics) and the part that sounds and sound patterns play (phonetics and phonology). You will have the chance to explore examples from different cultural, historical and linguistic contexts and to develop practical analytical skills.

In the first year you will also study a module on Language in Society. This will give you an insight into the relationship between language, culture and identity and you will study issues related to language and media, politics and education.

In your second year you will focus on further developing your skills and knowledge of language and the tools which enable you to collect data about language use. You will also develop your knowledge of the social contexts of language, how we acquire language and you will learn about cultural differences and intercultural communication in international professional contexts.

In the final year you can develop a research project and/or have the opportunity to study option modules that match your own interests.
