Overview

Highlights

Studying French can give students insights into an array of cultures and world views in over forty different countries on five different continents. French is also one of the official languages of the United Nations, the International Federation of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies, Doctors Without Borders, the Olympic Committee, and the European Community. French is the most frequently spoken language in American households after English and Spanish. The French and Francophone Studies degree is offered at Rhodes College.

We offer courses in French language and French and francophone cultures at the introductory and intermediary levels to students who seek to attain proficiency and fulfill the College’s language requirement (F 10). Upper-level courses lead our minors and majors to explore French and francophone literary texts, films, political discourse, and the media, while honing and enhancing linguistic skills and critical thinking. Many of our majors choose to double major and select courses in our French program that establish connections between language and culture studies and the various disciplines taught at Rhodes.
