Overview

Bachelor of Arts (French)

The Bachelor of Arts at the University of Wollongong will equip you for today’s rapidly changing world. 

French is one of the two working languages of the United Nations and many other organisations actively engaged in international politics and welfare (such as the Red Cross, the Olympic Games, and the EU). 

As the language of former colonial power and a language spoken on all five continents, it continues to play an essential part in the arts, politics and daily lives of millions of people worldwide.

At UOW, you will study French language, grammar, culture and history. 

You can begin your French language study from scratch or at the intermediate level and become proficient in all four skills: speaking, listening, reading and writing. 

France has a history and fascinating culture. You will discover the events and socio-cultural forces that have shaped modern France, its people and its language.

Subjects with substantial WIL

Undertaking a work-integrated learning experience during your university education is now a significant contributor to being competitive in securing employment in your field of choice when you graduate from UOW. 

The Faculty of the Arts, Social Sciences and Humanities internship program allows students to apply the knowledge and skills acquired in their degree in a workplace setting.
