French Studies – Bienvenue (Welcome)

  • The French Studies program is designed to enable students to develop a high level of communicative competence in the French language (including translation skills and specialised registers such as business French), and a critical awareness of fundamental areas of French studies: literature, film, cultural studies and linguistics. Students will develop writing and research skills appropriate to advanced independent study.

    To determine your level of proficiency and which stream you should enrol in, take our Placement Test.
