Hello!
We are the Modern Languages Society. We're a friendly group of students interested in various languages and cultures around the world. Most of our members come from the Modern Languages department but the society is open to anyone from any department, both undergrad or postgrad!
As a society, we will be hosting a range of events, both on and off-campus where you can meet new people with similar interests. We're planning on having events both with and without alcohol so that everyone can take part in some way. Some examples of events we're planning on hosting are Film Nights, regular Coffee Mornings, and lots of other fun langauge focused events.
Whilst we don't teach languages, the society is open to anyone with an interest at any level, and we're always happy to help out!
We look forward to seeing you at one of our events! Join for only £5!
