ObjectivesItalian with Theatre Studies (75% Italian, 25% Theatre Studies) has a strong focus on Italian components covering language, culture, and literature but it is also designed for those with an interest in drama as literature and theatre as communication. In each year, three modules are taken in Italian (one in Italian language and two other modules in Italian of a cultural and/or literary nature) with the remaining module being taken from Theatre Studies and/or other departments.
Entry requirementsGeneral university admissions requirements All applicants must possess a minimum level of competence in English Language and in Mathematics or a Science. A pass at Grade C or above in GCSE English Language and in Mathematics or a Science, or an equivalent qualification, fulfils this requirement. For some courses, requirements are above this University minimum, so you should check the relevant course-specific entry requirements in our hard copy prospectus which you can order online or browse on our online directory. We usually ask for candidates to show a broad base of study at GCSE level (or equivalent) with passes in at least five subjects from a range of disciplines.
