If you're interested in learning a new language alongside your studies, enrolment is now open to join a language course in the 2025–26 academic year.
Whether you're looking to boost your CV, prepare for international opportunities, or simply enjoy the challenge of learning something new, our courses offer a great way to build your skills and broaden your horizons.
Available languages
Languages on offer are Arabic, French, German, Italian, Mandarin Chinese, and Spanish, with classes available from Beginner to Advanced level. (Please note that Japanese courses are currently postponed until further notice.)
Course timetables
Timetables for Semesters 1 and 2 are available to view on MySkills. Enrolment opens on Monday 15 September 2025 and closes at midday on Thursday 16 October 2025 for Semester 1, and at midday on Wednesday 12 February 2026 for Semester 2.
Course fees
Students benefit from heavily discounted fees and pay only £99 per semester, per course. If you're a Bath Bursary or Gold Scholar student, you can apply for a funded place through MySkills.
Enrolling at the right level
If you haven’t studied a language with us previously, you can take a placement test (available through MySkills) to make sure you enrol at the right level.
