Degree Requirements
(44 credits)
This Majors Abroad Program (MAP) has an interdisciplinary focus on politics, history, international relations, and French language and culture.
Students with no background in French must complete the series FR 101 , FR 102 , FR 201 before entering the major. Students who have a previous knowledge of French will be placed according to their performance on the French placement inventory.
The Major in French Studies requires the student to spend two semesters abroad in France, at the American Graduate School in Paris (AGS) and the Alliance Française or at Hollins University in Paris. For more information visit studyabroad.arcadia.edu/find-aprogram/programs-by-country/france or www.hollins.edu/academics/beyond-theclassroom/study-abroad/study-abroad-in-paris/
If due to extenuating circumstances a student cannot study abroad for the required year to complete the MAP, a petition may be submitted for an Individualized Major, which would include only one semester abroad. This petition must be submitted by the beginning of the student’s junior year to the Academic Adviser for Individualized Majors in the Office of Graduate and Undergraduate Studies, for review by that Adviser and the UAPC Chair.
