Why Polish?
Polish is the official language of Poland, a country with a rich and tumultuous history situated in central Europe and the second most widely spoken language in England.
About the modules
Our Polish modules are open to all students (for credits or not), members of staff, and members of the public.
Available on a semester basis (11-12 weeks), the modules aim to develop language competence and cultural knowledge for professional and recreational purposes through small group weekly classes and guided independent learning.
