French

French is used by more than 200 million people worldwide, and is an official language of 32 countries. As a student of French, you’ll be immersing yourself in one of the world’s great languages, spoken in Europe, Africa, the Caribbean, North America and elsewhere. You’ll also be introduced to the rich literary and cultural traditions of French-speaking peoples. Your major in French will begin in your second year, following an exploratory general first-year program called Humanities I.
