The Department of Languages and Cultures offers French Studies, focusing on developing advanced language proficiency while exploring French societies and cultures from a global perspective. This program includes a mandatory year abroad for international study experience.
During your initial year, you'll dive into French language fundamentals and cultural studies. You'll also select two additional subjects, potentially including another foreign language.
In your second year, you'll enhance your linguistic abilities while examining France's historical, political, and cultural landscape through specialized courses with international and comparative European perspectives.
Your third year abroad in a Francophone environment significantly boosts language mastery and cultural awareness, with options for academic exchange or professional internships.
The final year focuses on refining language competence while offering specialized cultural studies. You'll have the chance to expand a second-year subject into an in-depth dissertation project.
