Welcome to the French Program!

We offer B.A. and M.A. degrees in French.  You can earn a B.A. in French with or without teaching licensure.  Our courses include conversation, composition, French for business, French and Francophone literature and culture studies, French film, phonetics, stylistics, and methods of language teaching, as well as independent studies that allow you to do intensive research on a topic of interest to you.  The Language Resource Center in Gordy Hall provides a wide array of audiovisual materials and technological tools to assist you in your French studies.  The French Program offers study abroad programs in Avignon and Québec City.  Students also have local opportunities to improve their skills outside of class by participating in activities with the French Honor Society, or by volunteering to teach French in local elementary schools.  The links to the left will provide you with more information on the many features of our program.  If, after exploring these links, you have further questions or would like to meet with a French advisor, feel free to call the Department of Modern Languages office (740-593-2765) to arrange an appointment.
