What will I learn?

French involves the study of a key European and international language as well as the cultures it has influenced across the world. As part of your French degree you can choose to focus on a whole range of topics including French comics, French song, travel writing, medieval France and contemporary French history.The School of Modern Languages & Cultures offers degrees in French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Russian and Spanish. French, German, Italian and Spanish can be studied on their own as a single subject or in combination with many other subjects as a joint degree. Portuguese and Russian are offered as joint degrees, meaning you study them alongside one other subject. Catalan, Chinese (Mandarin), Czech and Polish are all available as optional subjects that can be incorporated into your degree.In your first year, you will usually take a language at either Beginners level (which means you’ve never studied the language or have studied it at National 5, GCSE or equivalent) or at Non Beginners level (which means you come to Glasgow with a grade B at Higher, A-level or equivalent within the last three years).Language graduates go into a whole host of careers including: media, arts organisations, education / teaching, fast stream civil service, banking, management, public relationsdiplomatic service.
