The programme of study in French at an undergraduate level will give you an academic lens of the history, culture, language and literature of France. During the course we will instil within you a deep appreciation towards the language in both a linguistic and Literary perspective, as we will help you refine and hone your spoken, auditory and reading prowess in the language. By understanding the influence that the language and nation has had on an international level through the eyes of authors, poets, and countries, you will be more au courante with the history that the contemporary country holds onto and upholds. We also encourage you to participate in the Erasmus+ mobility programme for a multicultural and diversified learning journey.
