This is the structure for students taking Finnish alongside another language in either SELCS or SSEES (e.g. Finnish and French BA, Finnish and Ukrainian BA, etc.).
For details on the other language chosen to study alongside Finnish please refer to either the SSEES languages or SELCS webpages.
Students of Modern Languages must choose an interdepartmental module to the value of 15 credits in both Year 1 and Year 2. It is taken as part of the SSEES 60 credits of modules in one year and as part of the SELCS 60 credits of modules in the following year. For example, if a 15 credits interdepartmental module is taken on the SSEES side in Year 1, it must be taken on the SELCS side in Year 2.
All students take 120 credits of modules in each year (60 credits on the Finnish side of the degree).

Interdepartmental Modules
Students of Modern Languages must choose an interdepartmental module to the value of 15 credits in both Year 1 and Year 2. These are modules with codes beginning either ELCS or SEEE and any module may be taken in these groups. If you include the interdepartmental module in the SSEES 30 credits in one year you must include it in the SELCS 30 credits in the other year, or vice versa.
The SSEES Interdepartmental modules can be found here:
- SSEES Modules in the sub-section “Intermediate Level Modules (Interdepartmental)”.
You may also take any intermediate level ELCS module listed on the SELCS webpages
