At Birmingham, French Studies research investigates how language, discourse, and cultural analysis transform our perception and engagement with the world.

Our world-class research in French Studies spans from Renaissance to modern times, with particular emphasis on 20th and 21st century developments.

As part of the Modern Languages Department, French Studies benefits from a dynamic postgraduate environment and comprehensive support for research students.

We provide two dedicated research programs - PhD and MA by Research - catering to both doctoral candidates and master's level scholars. Discover more about our postgraduate research opportunities.
