Program Overview

The Bachelor of Contemporary International Studies (BCIS) is a fully NZQA-accredited three-year degree.

The programme provides students with opportunities to explore key areas and within them to specialise in a number of fields: International Business, International Relations, Japanese Studies, and TESOL & Language Studies. Graduates from the degree will have the tools to succeed as global citizens in the modern world.

Graduates will become able to think critically and solve problems in creative ways, and will be able to use more than one language, and communicate cross-culturally and inter-culturally.

PROGRAMME CONTENT
The Bachelor of Contemporary International Studies is an accredited interdisciplinary degree programme taken over three years of full-time study. Students may elect to obtain a major in a specialist area of study (International Business, International Relations, Japanese Studies, and TESOL & Language Studies).

The course also includes eight compulsory interdisciplinary papers, and six language and culture papers. In their final year, students will undertake an original, independent research project on an interdisciplinary topic.

 

Major: TESOL and Language Studies
The TESOL & Language Studies major is advantageous for those planning a career in teaching English, or any language to non-native speakers.

Students learn basic language teaching methodologies by gaining understanding of how languages work, regarding language structure, language systems and literary texts. Further to this, students will learn both about how people learn a language and how to effectively teach one, through practical experience in preparing, teaching and reviewing lessons. As part of this major you may opt to take the Trinity College London Certificate of TESOL, which enables you to teach English anywhere in the world.
