In the interconnected world of the 21st century, a strong command of languages is essential for a successful graduate career. Undergraduate exchange schemes, such as the EU-funded Erasmus, require a certified - intermediate level - knowledge of the language of the country in which the student wishes to study and there are now strict language requirements for job applications across Europe in professional areas such as medicine. In essence, the career prospects of language-fluent students are greatly enhanced. Volta offers language Courses in English, Fench and German. Students are offered a choice of three English levels (B1, B2 and C1), one level of French (DELF B2) and one level of German (DSH 1). French and German Courses are set at the threeshold for Erasmus placements. The College is exploring the prospect of offering Spanish and Chinese Courses from 2018/19.
