Overview
A French and Francophone Studies specialization of the Foreign Languages and Literatures major provides students with a strong command of the French language and an understanding of the cultures of the Francophone world. The specialization gives a foundation in the French Language, including speaking, reading, writing, and listening. The emphasis on communicative approaches and linguistic and cultural competencies trains students to compete in an increasingly globalized workforce. In addition, the major develops skills in critical thinking and research through in-depth study of the exceptionally rich humanistic tradition of France and the Francophone world throughout history. The program allows each student the flexibility to explore a variety of disciplines within the specialization and to design an individual course of study to reflect a particular interest in linguistics, literatures, cinema, cultural production, or other fields.
The specialization offers an excellent base for diverse careers including diplomacy, international relations, journalism, translation, education, global health, banking, and business. Many of students choose to combine the French and Francophone specialization with another field of study, including majors in physical sciences and engineering.
Requirements for the Major
The French and Francophone studies specialization in Foreign Languages and Literatures consists of foundational language study at the lower division (1000 and 2000 level), and 33 credits of advanced language, theory, and culture study in the upper division (3000 level and above).
All coursework for the major must be completed with minimum grades of C.
