The study of French is of great practical value for those interested in careers in international affairs, business, education, scholarship and other fields that require competency in a major foreign language. Just as important, though, is the appreciation it encourages for other cultures and, by comparison, one's own heritage. We share a world in which dialogue, coherent communication and mutual understanding are critical.
The College's Junior Year in France program is one of the College's most popular and successful study-abroad options. It is highly regarded for its academic excellence and cultural immersion. And, of course, it allows students to spend a full school year in one of the world’s most exciting and vibrant cities.
French is by its nature a broad, interdisciplinary field that draws on a variety of perspectives and traditions: language, literature, the arts, history, politics and cultural study. The diverse, accomplished faculty builds on these perspectives to offer stimulating courses and culturally authentic viewpoints. Classes are small, with intensive one-on-one guidance and discussion.
Have you enjoyed any of these authors and writings — Hugo's Les Misérables and The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Flaubert's Madame Bovary, Arthurian legends, Heloise, Zola, Molière, Racine, Diderot, Rousseau, Baudelaire, Sartre, Camus? They're all French in the original. A working knowledge of French will allow you to read some of the world's most enduring literature the way it was written.
