BA English and French
Are you fascinated by language and literature but also eager to develop your skills in the French language? If so, you'll love the opportunity to immerse yourself in the study of English in joint honours with our wide-ranging French programme.
Your time will be divided equally between these two complementary subjects, in which you'll discover parallels and points of comparison throughout the course. In English, you'll take modules covering drama and performance, English language and applied linguistics, literature (from 1500 to the present) and medieval language and literature. On the French side, alongside core modules in the French language (from beginners' level or post-A level) which take you to degree level by your final year, you will explore the rich culture of France and the Francophone world, including modules in history, literature, politics and linguistics.
The year abroad allows you to experience real life in a French-speaking environment. Honing your language skills and gaining valuable international experience. You'll have the option of studying at a French-speaking university, working in a school or undertaking a work placement.
By the end of the course you will have expertise in French and English language and culture and skills in analysing different texts and communicating your ideas.
