At Glasgow, the French program provides comprehensive expertise and guidance spanning from medieval times to the modern era, covering poetry, novels, theater and performance studies, linguistics, cultural studies, theoretical approaches, and visual arts including emblems, fine arts, and film.
The French program at Glasgow operates within a dynamic School of Modern Languages and Cultures, fostering an active research culture and vibrant postgraduate community. Faculty members conduct internationally recognized research both within specialized areas of French and Francophone Studies, as well as through cross-cultural collaborations with colleagues across the School's language departments, and in broader interdisciplinary partnerships spanning the College of Arts (including English Literature, History, Art History, Film Studies, Digital Humanities, Philosophy, and Theology) and College of Social Sciences (covering Politics, Education, Sociology, and Economic History).
Numerous French research faculty at Glasgow hold leadership positions in academic associations, national and international networks, and serve as editors or board members for prominent field journals such as French Cultural Studies, Paragraph, European Comic Art, and Forum for Modern Language Studies. Our College of Arts Graduate School cultivates a collaborative, interdisciplinary atmosphere for all research students, offering various resources, courses, and skill-building opportunities. The College of Arts hosts a diverse, intellectually stimulating community of students enrolled in both taught master's and research programs, with each department contributing groundbreaking, influential scholarship.
