Search 700 reasons
Research by the Subject Centre has identified more than 700 reasons to study languages. This research will be particularly useful for marketing languages and should help educators to promote language study and design. For example, if you want to know what sixth formers, language undergraduates and IWLP students have to say about studying languages, try searches for "sixth former", "language undergraduate" and "IWLP".
