Yr Ysgol Astudiaethau Ewropeaidd French France is a major player on the European and world stage and possesses a rich and sophisticated culture. Its language is more important today than it ever has been. Our French degree courses have been developed over a number of years to respond to the needs and demands of our students. At the end of your four years, you should have achieved a high level of competency in the language and be able to communicate effectively in French in most contexts and situations. We bring a wealth of resources and experience to bear on language teaching, using native speakers, language laboratories, newspapers and computer-assisted language programmes.
Equal emphasis is given to the four skills of reading, writing, speaking and listening.
We place a strong emphasis on joint degrees and have well-established joint degrees with Law, History, English, Japanese and Music amongst others. Studying French is not just about learning the language. We offer a range of modules in literature, politics, business , labour studies and cinema, to give you an in-depth understanding of France and its role in today's world. In Year One, our modules cater for a variety of students, including those taking single honours French, joint honours with another language, or as part of an LLB joint degree or Business degree.
