Our Business Management and French degree offers a unique blend of contemporary business studies and core French language modules, providing you with the perfect foundation for a thriving career both in the UK and abroad.

Whether you start with an A Level in French or as a beginner, in your first year, you'll dive into the essential concepts and functions of the modern business world while simultaneously developing your French language skills and exploring French-speaking societies and cultures from around the globe.

Building upon your strong foundation in Business Management, you'll have opportunities to apply your knowledge, skills, and understanding in real-world industries and organisations. Engage in entrepreneurship projects and put your French to the test in real-life situations, preparing you for living, studying, or working abroad.

Consider taking a language study placement abroad at the end of your second year, immersing yourself in French-speaking cultures like Guadeloupe or studying at our partner business school in Lyon or even earning a Cambridge CELTA qualification for teaching English to speakers of other languages.

The third year abroad is an invaluable opportunity to hone your linguistic and intercultural skills while studying business at one of our partner universities or to take a work placement in a French speaking country. For anyone unable to travel, a three-year route is also available.

In your final year, delve deeper into the world of French in business, translation, and mediation, and explore the diverse cultural contexts of languages. On the business side, you'll have opportunities to contribute to Business Management research and live projects, further enhancing your professional skills.

If you choose to undertake your major project in French, you'll be able to tailor your studies even more precisely to your career goals.
