Introduction

The Faculty of Modern and Medieval Languages at Cambridge is a large but closely-knit multi-departmental Faculty, offering teaching and research facilities in French, Occitan, Italian, Spanish, Catalan, Portuguese, Medieval Latin, German, Dutch, Slavonic, Modern Greek, and Linguistics, among other areas such as comparative literature and film. We offer five MPhil courses, including two in Linguistics. A wide range of expertise is available within the Faculty for supervising research: see the staff lists under each Department webpage (http://www.mml.cam.ac.uk/depts/). The Modern and Medieval Languages Faculty Library has a very good collection of literary and critical texts, and the University Library is a research library of international renown. Most volumes are on open access and available for borrowing. There is also a Language Centre which services the entire University, and which houses an extensive collection of European and World Cinema on video tape.

The Faculty has a Graduate Centre with computing, study, seminar and social areas. The facilities include extensive IT, printing, and copying resources, tv, video and dvd. The Centre is the venue for the MML Graduate Training Programme. A Media Centre, with film facilities, was added in 2006.
