Hello! I am delighted to share with you some of the exciting developments in our language-teaching provision, here at the University of Manchester. Arabic, Chinese, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Russian and Spanish: we teach them all across a vast range of courses, drawing on cutting-edge expertise and offering a broad spectrum of course units. Whether you study these languages from scratch or are already proficient, a language degree at Manchester will allow you to realise your potential, and will very likely represent the most fruitful and constructive four years you will ever spend. In our globalised world, the ability to speak languages is central to leading richer, more inter-connected lives, and students here develop the communication and critical skills that not only enable them to understand others better, but also to grow into socially responsible and culturally attentive citizens. With flexibility of course options, native-speaker staff, superb facilities, round-the-year cultural events and numerous employment opportunities, we are confident that we deliver one of the best learning experiences for modern languages in the UK. Take a look through this magazine for highlights of our courses, events and partners. I really hope to see you next year! page 01
Arabic and Middle Eastern Studies Our department has had another busy year both academically and socially, with a number of exciting events bringing students of all levels together to learn and share ideas. Through public events and seminars, debates about contemporary issues in the Middle East and North Africa have taken place. We co-organised a Film Weekend at HOME cinema in Manchester in October 2018, entitled ‘Revisiting the 2011 Egyptian Revolution in Film’, showing four films and holding post-screening discussions with a filmmaker from Egypt (Amal Ramsis) and academics from the universities of Manchester, Warwick and Reading (this event was facilitated through a grant from the University of Warwick). At the moment, we are in the process of taking part in a year of celebrating women in film globally at HOME, and will organise a Lebanese film weekend next October, inviting women filmmakers from Lebanon. We have also continued our lively discussions and debates ranging from the historical to the contemporary, gender issues, culture and religion. Meanwhile, our researchers have been taking time out from their cuttingedge work (on topics ranging from the history of the Ottoman Empire, the postcolonial era, gender and society, literature, to contemporary popular culture) to provide extra feedback and guidance sessions for all of our students. Mentoring and language-practice schemes are also well underway, pairing students both with more-experienced course-mates and with some of the University’s many native Arabic speakers. Between this wide range of extra-curricular events and our challenging courses on Middle Eastern politics, history, religion, and literature – not to mention language! – our students have seldom been at a loss for something to do. To say nothing of our Arabic students engrossed in exploring their year abroad in Morocco and Jordan!

Chinese Our Chinese Studies programme continues to experience an exciting period of growth with new staff joining us and exciting prospects across the University as a whole. The new Manchester China Institute (MCI), a research and cultural hub funded by a visionary gift of £5M from Dr Lee Kai Hung, was recently formally launched and has already held numerous events across campus. The MCI pools together people and resources from across the university, and provides a centre for everyone working on different aspects of the study of China and the Chinese-speaking world. The Chinese Studies department also continues to be involved in the collaborative planning of a new wing at the Manchester Museum. Opening in 2020, the ‘Lee Kai Hung Chinese Culture Gallery’ will house not only the University’s extensive holdings of Chinese antiquities, but also modern and contemporary pieces that illustrate and provide context for China’s rise in the 21st century. The Chinese Studies programme also regularly teams up with the Confucius Institute , conveniently housed on the premises of The University of Manchester. Together, we run cultural events throughout the year, a highlight of which is the annual Dragon Boat Race, taking place in Salford Quays. Externally, we have an exciting project organized with the Centre for Contemporary Chinese Art, Salford University and Manchester Metropolitan University, focusing on contemporary East Asian art. We continue to work toward developing Greater Manchester into a centre of creative and engaged exploration of East Asian art in all its forms. Of special interests to our many students on the Chinese and Business & Management degree is our ‘Study China’ programme, the UK’s largest student mobility initiative that fosters work opportunities abroad for graduates of Chinese at Manchester. The advantage of studying Chinese at Manchester goes beyond opportunities for business and internships however, as we equip students with fundamental knowledge about the fascinating culture and history of China and the Chinese-speaking world. We have course units that cover a range of themes, from culture, literature and the arts, to history, business and economics. You can read more about what we offer and watch videos featuring current Chinese Studies students on our subject page .

French The academic year is as busy as ever for us in French Studies, with so many opportunities for our students to immerse themselves in all things ‘French’ while here in Manchester, on and off campus. In November the French-born Christine and the Queens was playing in Manchester, and the city-centre arts studio HOME hosted the play Les Bonnes (The Maids), written in the 1970s by the queer playwright Jean Genet. A Q&A at the end of the performance, led by our very own Dr Jason Hartford, offered an opportunity to discuss the everlasting radical power of Genet’s work. Our yearly ‘Working with French’ workshop has also already taken place, putting finalists in touch with second-year students to discuss their experience as stagiaires (interns) during the Year Abroad. But doing a stage is only one of the options for our Year Abroad students : they can work and/or study anywhere in the French-speaking world, and you can read an online interview with our current finalist, Gina Wilson , who worked as an English Language Assistant in the seaside town of Saint-Nazaire in 2018. She had a wonderful time by the sound of it, and so did her pupils! Like every year, our students can also join the book and film clubs of the Alliance française de Manchester , our partner for all cultural events, and the French Society is currently getting ready for its annual April trip to Paris. In April too, some finalists will travel to the beautiful surroundings of the Institut de Touraine, our partner institution in the Loire Valley in France, to follow intensive revision courses there. In May, we’ll host a special, day-long research event focused on the topic of ‘taste’, with a keynote paper by Prof. Diana Holmes (Leeds) on the feminist novelist Colette and popular literature of the Belle Epoque; other talks will examine the taste for outre-mer (overseas territories) in French literature, and that of violence in the films of Michael Haneke. In terms of teaching, we’re constantly making adjustments to our curriculum on the basis of student feedback, while ensuring that everybody receives first-rate core language provision, alongside a range (and a choice) of history, politics, literature and popular culture modules. For details of our curriculum, visit French Studies , and for updates on our cultural agenda, read our weekly blog posts. Hopefully, à l’année prochaine!

German Our programme of activities for students of German is fully packed again this year. Our cinema and theatre complex HOME is currently showing a series of films by the director Margarethe von Trotta, a key but often overlooked contributor to the New German cinema of the 1970s and 80s, who went on to become one of Europe’s most distinguished and critically acclaimed directors. The series began with a panel discussion featuring our own Professor Cathy Gelbin and a screening of von Trotta’s 'The Second Awakening of Christa Klages'. On 26 February, HOME was also the venue for a screening of Claudio Poli’s documentary 'Hitler versus Picasso and the Others: The Nazi Obsession for Art', an incredible journey into the world of stolen Nazi art and the ‘degenerate’ works that were only recently recovered. The screening was followed by a Q&A with our History colleague Dr Jean-Marc Dreyfus, who appears in the film. Back in November, our temporary lecturer Corinne Painter and her colleague Ingrid Sharp (Leeds) gave a talk on their involvement in the play Women of Aktion!, based on the Kiel Mutiny which triggered the German revolutions of 1918-19. The play itself was performed the following evening at Partisan Collective theatre in Cheetham Hill, Manchester. You can see a mini-film about the play here . On a less serious note, our annual Great German Bake-Off took place just before Christmas. This year’s winner was a frothing marzipan beer Stein. We continue to be an active part of the North West German Network , which is a joint initiative by local schools, businesses and universities to promote all things German in the North West of England. Up-todate news about language courses, German films and markets, and about business and work opportunities in Germany, Austria or Switzerland, are available on the website. And, as every year, we continue to offer specialist teaching covering the 19th century to the present, with particularly popular courses that examine representations of gender and race, films about the Holocaust, and other aspects of Germany’s turbulent history.

Italian This year our Italian Studies students are as busy as ever, with a full programme of classes covering the 15th century to the present, where literature, politics, history and popular culture all feature. We were very proud recently when our Italian alumna Charlotte Alton (BA French/Italian 2017) was awarded a Distinction in her MA in Medieval and Early Modern Studies at the University of Manchester; Charlotte is planning to start a PhD next year. Many of our postgraduate students have also been doing very well, with three postgraduates recently passing their viva examinations with flying colours: congratulations to Paul Clarke (Boccaccio studies), Federica Coluzzi (the English reception of Dante), and Elena Anna Spagnuolo (Translation and Migration Studies). Staff are also keeping up the good work. Salvatore Campisi is now our Senior Language Tutor. Dr Guyda Armstrong continues to work on her AHRC project on Petrarch Exegesis and Commentary 1350-1650, in co-direction with colleagues from Oxford and Leeds universities. The project team were in Venice for a workshop in September 2018 and launched the project’s database in Oxford more recently. Dr Armstrong’s role is, in part, to digitize the 15th and 16th century print editions of the Italian poet Petrarch, held in our very own John Rylands Library’s special collection (85 books in total). Dr Francesca Billiani, recently on an AHRC-funded research leave (Leadership Fellowship award), is busy curating a body of digital resources for teaching and research on artistic practice during the Fascist dictatorship, and writing a new monograph on architecture and the novel (co-written with Dr Laura Pennacchietti). Dr Alessandra Diazzi, currently away on maternity leave, was running a film club in the first semester and produced more research on the Italian anni di piombo. And, finally, our linguistics Professor Delia Bentley is a constant source of support for staff and students, with her final year course unit on regional linguistic variations in Italian ever so popular. We are looking forward to more Italian adventures this year, and hope very much that you will join us.

Japanese We are excited that the BA East Asian Studies is now part of our offering, and our East Asian Studies Research Seminar series, run in partnership with Chinese Studies, kicked off Semester 2 with talks by Dr Helen McNaughton (SOAS) on the gender divide in employment in Japan. Further talks this semester will explore Japan’s eugenics laws since the early post-war period. This year again, our long-term friend and part-time colleague, Mr Takayasu Takemoto, a.k.a. ‘Taka-san’, hosted a sushi demonstration event with a final-year student gallantly (and excellently!) serving as his interpreter. On the cultural side, there has been the Japan Foundation touring film programme which brings films old and new to Manchester’s excellent art cinema HOME, and next month Dr Sharon Kinsella and Jonathan Bunt will be offering introductory talks to some screenings. Dr Kinsella has also taken students to Leeds for a tour of the Japanese collection in the Local Armouries as part of our first year Introduction to Japanese Studies course. Our students in Year Two are preparing their applications for study abroad and have been meeting with the Japanese exchange students for our regular ‘visitor sessions’. Our Student PeerMentors have already held Japanese movie sessions, a tea party and study skills sessions for first-year students before their exams. Coming up in March is the Language XP scheme, which offers language teaching experience in local schools for final-year students, and this year, two of our students (plus one from the MA Translation course) have been preparing for their Japanese teaching sessions in sixthforms or secondary schools. Please keep checking our Japanese at Manchester Facebook page for regular notices on forthcoming events and opportunities. We look forward to meeting you, or catching up with you soon.

Portuguese In Portuguese Studies here at Manchester, we are entering a busy and exciting period. We have a number of students currently in their year abroad in Brazil, studying at our partner universities in São Paulo and Florianópolis, and in a variety of work placements: teaching English, working in a Pousada, or doing subtitling work, amongst other exciting activities. Meanwhile, other students are studying at our three ERASMUS partner universities in Portugal: Coimbra, Porto and Lisbon. Our Portuguese language tutor, José Coelho de Souza, continues to host our very popular Café Lusófono, a series of regular, informal gatherings for coffee, cake and Portuguese-language conversation, open to all Portugueselanguage speakers on campus and beyond. Also, a group of our second and final-year students are participating in the Languages XP programme which sees them deliver Portuguese language tasters in state schools across Greater Manchester to pupils who have no previous experience of the language. In partnership with Dr Felipe Milanez from Universidade Federal da Bahia, and with Ailton Krenak from Núcleo de Cultura Indígena, Professor Lucia Sá recently organised an event in Bahia about racism against indigenous populations in Brazil as part of an AHRC Network grant. The final event of this project will take place in Manchester. Later this semester, as part of our Spanish and Portuguese research seminars, we will have a talk on samba and black activism in 1970s Brazil. In addition, we are fortunate to be collaborating with a Brazilian theatre group this year, Coletiva Ocupação, who are performing at Manchester’s Contact Theatre in May. Besides watching the show, about the widespread high school occupations in Brazil in 2015 and 2016, our Portuguese students will be working with the group to produce subtitles for the show and assist with interpreting during rehearsals. Watch out for some of these events here in Manchester!

Russian Russian Studies staff and students are busy as always, not just with teaching and teaching-related activities— such as the launch of new course units and the establishment of a new study abroad partnership in Russia—but also with research and various extracurricular activities. Last year, our departmental research lectures and workshops focused heavily on the centenary of the Russian Revolution. This year, colleagues have hosted and participated in a range of very topical events, including a roundtable on conspiracy theories and Russia’s role in the global ‘information war’. In addition, guest speakers have shared their research on a diverse range of topics including peacebuilding in the Balkans, radical Indian intellectuals in the USSR and (upcoming later this month) new interpretations of Mikhail Bulgakov’s novel The Master and Margarita. Dr Liza Langley and Dr Elena Simms, our outstanding language tutors, have likewise been busy, working closely with Student Leaders on our Peer-Assisted Study Scheme (PASS) and organising a range of Russian cultural events, including a matryoshka workshop at which students painted their very own Russian nesting dolls. Our staff and students have also been involved in a range of outreach events both on campus and offsite. In January, Dr Rachel Platonov and a team of Russian Studies Student Ambassadors went to Jodrell Bank Observatory for an insight day involving students and teachers from sixth-forms across the North West. Dr Platonov gave a talk on Soviet views of the Cold War and the ‘Space Race’, while the Student Ambassadors led a workshop analysing primary sources about Jodrell Bank, its founder Sir Bernard Lovell, and his fascinating interactions with both the Soviets and the Americans during the ‘Space Race’. The huge Lovell Telescope, which helped to track Soviet satellites in the late 1950s-1960s, made a very impressive backdrop for the event! In July, Dr Platonov will return to Jodrell Bank for the Bluedot Festival, marking the 50th anniversary of the American Apollo 11 moon landing with insights into how the Soviet Union responded to this space exploration milestone. This is just a small taste of the Russian-related offerings and events going on here in Manchester. We hope you will join us in September and find out more in person!

Spanish In Spanish and Latin American Studies, we have had a lively start of the year. The latest version of El periódico de español has come out – a great collaboration between students and staff; the Café en Español – our regular Spanish-language get-together – is up and running; SPLASSS (the student society) are preparing for their annual trip to Spain and have many new events planned. Our Spanish, Portuguese and Latin American Studies Cine Club screened La isla mínima (Spain 2014), El secreto de sus ojos (Argentina 2009) and the Cuban documentary Suite Habana (Cuba 2003) in Semester 1. In Semester 2 students and staff will get together to watch and discuss the documentary Catalunya: 1-0 (Spain 2018), the Brazilian crime film Tropa de elite (Brazil 2007) and Guillermo del Toro’s first feature film, Cronos (Mexico 1993). Academic colleagues will be involved in the 25th ¡VIVA! Spanish and Latin American Festival in March-April at HOME , with theatre, art, music, and film from across the Hispanic world. Our Centre for Latin American and Caribbean Studies continues to run its programme of events with forthcoming talks on race, identity and migration among Afro-Mexicans, indigenous peoples in Santiago de Chile, and queer art in turn of the twentieth century Mexican literary magazines. Our programme closes with a conference on comics and the city, part of Dr James Scorer’s Leverhulme Trust-funded project 'Comics and the Latin American City' . As part of their commitment to explore and develop cutting edge teaching approaches, our team of language tutors are hosting a session on how to teach the fifth linguistic skill recognised by the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages: mediation. As part of the programme of our Spanish and Portuguese Research Seminar, we will also have a session on contemporary Spanish poetry and its audiences. ¡Es que hay MUCHÍSIMO! And in the meantime, our various Semester 2 courses are now in full swing, exploring different aspects of modern Spanish culture and history, Spanish linguistics, indigenous and black agency in Latin American history, the cultural history of Spanish music, and the politics of business in 20th century Latin America, to mention but a few. One exciting innovation in the Spanish language course is to give our second-year students access to, and expert training in, audiodescription (an accessible translation mode), allowing them to build it into culture modules as an extracurricular practice. We hope you will become part of it all, and we can look forward to welcoming you here in September!

Modern Language and Business and Management A Modern Language and Business & Management (MLBM) is fast becoming our most popular programme across all languages, and for very good reasons. With over 30 different second-year and another 28 final-year course units to choose from, across Business, Management and Economics, the Business & Management side of the degree is unique in its breadth, and delivered by world-leading experts. To illustrate, Prof. Leo McCann’s book on International and Comparative Business has become a leading textbook for students the world over and is the basis of a second-year course he lectures on. In their second year, students can also choose the Manchester Leadership Programme , an optional course unit that offers hands-on training in Management, with leaders from all sections of society, including academia, business, charities and the public sector, giving master classes. Additionally, MLBM students benefit from the state-of-the-art facilities in the newly redeveloped Alliance Manchester Business School building, including the specialised Eddie Davies Library . On the Language side, students not only receive dedicated business language classes but also, and importantly, specialist knowledge in many aspects of foreign culture, including history, politics, literature, film, popular culture, linguistics or translation. This ensures that a Manchester graduate on the MLBM programme is not just a competent linguist, but also, and perhaps above all, a well-rounded, adaptable professional whose cultural knowledge gives them the edge when ‘doing business’.
Politics and a Modern Language Replacing the ‘European Studies’ programme, the Politics and a Modern Language degree is now more international in scope with the possibility to combine Politics with any of our nine languages. As an innovative collaboration between the School of Social Sciences and the School of Arts, Languages and Cultures, this degree offers great flexibility through its combination of core and optional politics modules, in addition to the study of Arabic, Chinese, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Russian or Spanish. After Year 1 core units on political theory and comparative and international politics, you can choose to study modules such as ‘The Politics of (In)Security’, ‘The Politics of Development’, ‘The Politics of Climate Change’, ‘What is Europe?’, ‘Gender, Sex and Politics’ and ‘Africa and Global Politics’ from a list of 20+ choices. From Year 2, you may even include another language for 20 credits as part of your Degree. Some highly prestigious study placements, such as Sciences Po in Paris, are also available to students on their Year Abroad.
page 11
Studying Languages at Manchester Please check our Modern Languages Brochure , where a selection of current course units is listed. Beyond the core language modules and the first-year core culture modules, a general principle of choice among culture units applies from Year 2. Each new student is paired up with an ‘Academic Advisor’ upon arrival, an individual academic staff member who gets to know the students best and remains their point of contact throughout their studies. This colleague is best placed to support students if personal matters affect their academic progress. All subjects have excellent support mechanisms in place for both academic and personal issues, ranging from our efficient Mitigating Circumstances Policy to Disability Support , Counselling Services, peer-support sessions, academic writing workshops, student reps, and more.
Additional Languages Our Language Centre offers evening classes in Arabic, Catalan, Chinese, Dutch, French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hindi, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Persian, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, Turkish, Urdu and TESOL (English for foreign speakers). We offer language courses ranging from beginners’ level through to intermediate and on to courses for advanced learners in many of these options.
page 11
Residence Abroad All students spend Year 3 abroad, but this is much more than a single academic year outside of Manchester. The majority of our students leave just after the end of their second-year exams, and don’t return until late September of Year 4, meaning that they enjoy up to 15 months of full immersion in the country or countries of their choice. Depending on your proficiency in a given language, and depending on which languages you combine together, you will spend a minimum of 2 to 4 months in one place, and a minimum of 8 months abroad overall. What is specific to Manchester, too, is the huge range of options available: for most destinations, you’ll be able to either study, get an internship and/or teach English, and usually be able to mix and match these possibilities together. Example 1: a Single Honours French Studies student may study for one semester in La Martinique (French Caribbean), then do an internship in Paris for 6 months. Example 2: a Joint Honours German & Chinese student may work in Berlin for 2 months over one summer, then study in Shanghai for 2 semesters, and then do a German language course in Austria over the following summer. Example 3: a Joint Honours MLBM-Italian student may work in Rome for 8 months, and do another stint as an intern in Sicily for 5 months. If you choose to work, our superb Careers Service provides a database of reliable foreign companies where our students have already had positive experiences. If you are interested in studying abroad, see the full list of our current university partners. And remember… French, Spanish and Portuguese are not just spoken in Europe: you can immerse yourself in these languages much further afield.

Careers in Languages Modern Foreign Languages graduates from our University have gone on to a huge variety of careers. Recent job titles include: Culture and Development Manager at the British Council, Production Coordinator at the BBC, Translator at The Big Word , Editor at MacMillan Education, Analyst at Goldman Sachs, Graduate Buying Trainee at Lidl. Every year, the Careers Service runs special events for Language students, such as the popular ‘Meet the Language Graduates’ where students can network and talk to University of Manchester alumni about the jobs they do and how they use their languages.
Multilingual Manchester
Being the large urban centre that it is, Manchester is particularly multilingual, multicultural and student-friendly, and the ideal place to learn languages given its long-established partnerships with cultural institutes, chief among which are: the Confucius Institute , the Alliance française de Manchester and the Instituto Cervantes. Manchester is itself a highly popular destination for foreign students, and the University’s links with European and world-wide institutions means that the campus is always abuzz with foreign visitors. It couldn’t be easier meeting up with students whose native language you’re hoping to learn! page 13
Graduate Profile French/Russian alumna Frances Jenkins BA(Hons) Mod Langs - French/Russian (graduated 2010) Frances says: "During my third year abroad, as part of my degree at Manchester, I worked as a stagiaire in Paris for a small English law firm. My primary role was to translate legal documents from French into English and vice versa. I became very interested in law then, and decided to train as a lawyer after graduating. I qualified as a solicitor in 2014 and, because I had studied Russian at university, I was able to move into Russian disputes in 2017 and have not looked back! Russia and the former Soviet region are emerging economies which offer plenty of work opportunities. In particular, there is a strong market in the UK for dispute resolutions emanating from those regions, because the English judicial system has an excellent reputation for both efficiency and integrity. Numerous oligarchs have appeared before our courts recently, including the famous Roman Abramovich. Because my clients are Russian, the fact that I have lived in Russia (as part of my year abroad) and am able to speak the language breaks down any cultural and linguistic barriers between us. Without hesitation, I would recommend studying a foreign language. Law is an extremely competitive profession and my Russian skills have made my CV stand out. So far, every single job I have had in the legal profession has been given to me because I speak a foreign language. Furthermore, when representing the interests of international clients, the knowledge and experience you gain as a language graduate puts you in an excellent position to understand and engage with such clients."
