Career opportunities

This degree combines rigorous Arabic language study with deep cultural insight into the Middle East. As a result, it equips you with a whole range of knowledge and skills that will help you in a range of careers.

You’ll be able to research complex topics and assess information from different sources, thinking critically about what you find to form your own conclusions. You’ll then be able to communicate your views clearly, both verbally and in writing. Creativity, teamwork, time management and organisational skills will all come into play throughout your degree.

Graduates have gone into a wide range of careers. Some of them have worked in language-specific roles, such as translating, interpreting and teaching (including CELTA courses) and others have launched careers in the civil service, journalism, business and finance, think tanks, tourism, the charity sector and even global organisations like the United Nations.

Others continue to postgraduate study, either at Leeds or elsewhere, to develop translation skills or further explore topics in Islamic and Middle Eastern studies, which can lead to PhD study and a career in academia.

We are committed to helping you achieve your career ambitions. The School of Languages, Cultures and Societies careers and employability support includes promoting internships, providing opportunities to work for the School and employer-led workshops and events.
