"Evidence now shows that populations which retain or revive minoritised languages have a better quality of life. By contributing to revival efforts we help students gain these benefits, as well as the cognitive & economic benefits associated with multilingualism & diversity".
Students dreaming of a big salary should take degrees in medicine, economics or maths, it reveals, but graduates who took Celtic studies or sports science are most fulfilled by their lives, despite being in the bottom ten for earnings ⬇️
