Course summary

Lancaster鈥檚 joint French Studies and Philosophy degree is taught by the Department of Languages and Cultures in conjunction with the Department of Politics, Philosophy and Religion. This degree includes an international placement in year 3.Your French Studies programme gives you the opportunity to acquire high-level language skills while gaining a thorough understanding of the country鈥檚 historical, cultural, social and political background in a global context. In Philosophy, you will cultivate your own critical perspective on philosophical problems and questions, and develop a range of methods for analysing, critically engaging with, and discussing such problems.Your first year comprises an exploration of the French language and its cultural context as well as an introduction to some of the central problems in philosophy and the theories produced in response to them. Alongside this, you will study a minor subject of your choice.Building on your language skills in Year 2, you will be given the opportunity to study the culture, politics and history of the French-speaking world in more depth, as well as selecting modules which are international in scope and promote a comparative understanding of Europe and beyond. You will combine these with a choice from a range of Philosophy modules.Spending your third year abroad in a French-speaking country gives you the opportunity to greatly improve your language proficiency, while deepening your intercultural sensitivity. You can study at a partner university or conduct a work placement.In the final year you will be able to choose from a broad range of philosophy modules you will also consolidate your French language skills, and study specialist culture and comparative modules.You can find some examples of optional modules in the Course Structure section below.


Beginners Languages

Studying a language from beginners level is somewhat intense in nature so we only allow students to study one language from beginners level. Please bear this in mind when looking at our first year module options. If you apply to study a degree with a language from beginners level, your optional modules will only include higher level languages and modules in other subject areas.
