The Language Centre offers language modules for all students at the University of Nottingham that can be taken alongside the student’s main degree. Each module is semester-long and worth 10 credits.
(see 'What are the different types of modules?')
Yes you can, however it won't count towards your degree classification and there will be a cost attached.
Who can take a language module?
Generally: All undergraduate and postgraduate taught (PGT) students can take optional modules. This will differ for every degree course. Please check the module catalogue for the requirements of your degree or speak to the course director or your Personal Tutor.
Medical students: The Language Centre offers special study modules to students from the School of Medicine and Health Sciences. Please contact the Language Centre for further guidance.
PhD students: You can take language modules as a fee-paying student (see xxx). If your PhD involves the language you wish to learn there are options to get the fee reimbursed.
I study at Sutton Bonnington Campus – can I still take a language module?
Yes, you can. However, as all Language Centre classes take place on University Park, you will need to factor in travel time to get to the classes on time.
If you do the module as part of your 120 credits the modules are free. If you take a language module separate from your degree, there is a cost attached - See 'Learning a language not for credits / as part of your course' for further information.
Yes. Like any other module you take for credits, it will count towards your end of year total mark.
Are there any restrictions for final year students?
Final year students are sometimes not allowed to take beginners’ modules. Please check the module catalogue for requirements of your degree or speak to the course director or your Personal Tutor.
