Philosophy & Modern Language - French or German or Italian or Russian

Philosophy is an intellectually exciting discipline in which fundamental questions of human existence, value and society are examined, debated and challenged. Its methods are reason and argument and philosophy students are given the skills to reason and argue clearly, cogently and effectively. A modern language plus another subject allows you to combine an interest in languages with an entirely different academic discipline, and gives you intensive training in both.
