 French Studies

Description

French is a major international language and an official working language of the United Nations and many other international organisations. The study of French not only equips students with French communication skills, but enables them to learn more generally about the structure and function of language/s, while the study of French literature, linguistics and culture aids in the development of a critical and inquiring mind.

French graduates have pursued careers in a wide variety of fields, from teaching to public and diplomatic service, journalism and the media, administration, private industry and tourism.

Studying French at UNSW

At UNSW, French is taught at the undergraduate level in a number of streams, catering to students with different levels of French language experience ranging from absolute beginners to Native French speakers who have a Baccalaureat or equivalent qualification.

The School of Languages and Linguistics (http://languages.arts.unsw.edu.au/french) also offers an Honours year and opportunities for postgraduate study through the degrees of Master of Arts (by Research) and Doctor of Philosophy (PhD), as well as graduate certificates and diplomas in French language.
