French major

UFV offers a major, an extended minor, and a minor in French as part of its Bachelor of Arts program. The primary goal of the French major is to enable graduates to acquire advanced levels in writing, reading, speaking, listening, and interacting in French, one of Canada’s official languages. French major graduates will be well-prepared for employment in teaching French, translation, and working in bilingual positions such as those offered by the Federal Government, as well as in other areas of today’s globalized, multilingual workforce.

Three optional immersion courses at the fourth-year level have been developed in conjunction with a student exchange program between UFV’s French program and Université Laval. For more information, contact the department head or an Advisor.

This section specifies the major discipline requirements only. Information on additional Bachelor of Arts requirements can be found here, including the requirements for declaring a major.
