CZECH FACULTY OF ARTS
Czech
Benefit from excellent links with universities and employers in the Czech Republic as well as with organisations such as the Czech Embassy and Czech Centre in London.
Why study Czech at Bristol? The modern Czech Republic is at the heart of the expanded European Union and is a key strategic and trading partner of the UK. It has established itself as a centre for banking, finance, media, diplomacy and tourism. Czech expertise, especially combined with another of the European languages we offer at Bristol, is a prized asset for many professions.
At Bristol, you study the language intensively in small groups, with close attention from expert teachers who are native speakers. Modern languages students benefit from a state-of-the art multimedia centre, with access to over 2,000 films, foreign channels and magazines.
Our students often achieve excellent, graduate- level fluency after four years. Our options are designed to allow you to explore contemporary priorities and concerns of modern Czech society alongside Czech history and culture. Literature classes boost language learning with close reading of original texts in small groups.
Final-year students have the opportunity to write an extended project on an aspect of Czech history, culture or society, and can take up the closely related Slovak language.
A Czech degree will stand out as a sign of individuality, intellectual ability and a capacity to take on unusual challenges. Recent graduates have entered diverse careers including British and international civil services, teaching, translating and interpreting, finance, industry, the media, publishing, law, tourism and further study.
