Modern Languages (French and Russian) and International Relations, MA Hons FullTime

Great course! Amazing teaching (in particular the Russian department is outstanding) and wide range of modules available. St Andrews is the best for IR in terms of breadth of modules available - every niche is catered for, and being able to take two languages alongside is fantastic. Taking a triple honours degree can be tough in terms of workload but is very rewarding. read more

Comparative Literature and English, MA Hons FullTime

Some of the lectures you wonder what you’ve gotten yourself into (I.e a random lecture about how to use the library a month after we’ve been at uni), other then that I’m loving the course so far!! read more

It is difficult for me to emit an opinion, since my student experience was altered by covid times. However, my online experience was qualitative, surrounded with attentive professors teaching interesting subjects. read more

Comparative Literature and Spanish, MA Hons FullTime

Honestly, I don't understand why more people don't take advantage of Comparative Literature. It's available as a joint degree with most subjects and the academics come from Modern Languages (and English). You study other cultures (in translation) and gain a keen eye for cultural nuance and handling text/language. read more

Italian and Management, MA Hons FullTime

Once you get into honours years (3rd and 4th year) you can pick your own modules alongside 1 or 2 compulsory ones to complete your degree. I found this very useful, especially when applying to jobs this year, as it shows prior knowledge, specialisation and interest in particular aspects of Management. read more
