MML combines excellence in teaching, academic rigour and research with a strong tradition of pastoral support for students. It is a vibrant place to study, and since 2016 these factors have helped it top The Complete University Guide League Tables for all individual languages and linguistics. We are pleased to say that we have also led the way in 2018 for the Guardian University Guide and The Good University Guide!

We strive to excel across the disciplines we teach and take the needs and outcomes of our students very seriously. The ranking is important to us as a reflection of hard work and a considered strategy to provide the best possible environment in which students can thrive.

Guide tables exist for the purpose of providing applicants to university with a comprehensive, up to date and relevant way to assess which universities and degree programmes best suit their needs. Measurements are made for entry standards, student satisfaction, research quality, research intensity, graduate prospects, student-staff ratio, degree completion, and more.
