FRENCH
    2009 - 2010 French Program Information

    60 credit hours


    An emphasis in French provides the essential language background for the advanced study of French; for competency in understanding, speaking, and writing the language and for a more rapid acquisition of other foreign languages (particularly romance languages such as Spanish). The courses are oral-proficiency based in order to enable the student to converse in French as quickly as possible.


    Career Options
    When combined with further study beyond the associate degree, an emphasis in French may lead to careers in education, business, or government. In light of the opportunities presented by the emergence of a common European market, the mastery of French and other European languages may lead to exciting career opportunities when combined with a business or marketing degree.
