French Studies with International Relations BA (Hons)

This is a unique programme of study delivered over three years of full residency in Paris, offering students a high level of exposure to French language and culture (understood in its broadest form to include literature, history, visual culture, cinema, linguistics and contemporary civilisation), as well as providing them with a grounding in various aspects of Politics and International Relations, including international relations theories and issues and the politics of the French-speaking world, including Africa and the Middle East. The programme is designed to give students a grounding in all of these central issues (especially at levels 4 and 5), but at the same time provide sufficient flexibility to specialise in particular themes, topics and areas if they so wish (especially at level 6, but also to some degree at level 5). A research dissertation option is offered at Level 6.
