Requirements for Major*
The department offers a major in French Studies. The requirements for the French Studies major are French 310 and 314 plus any four out of the following 300-level courses (312, 313, 331, 341, 351,385, 391) and three 400-level French courses (460, 488, 490). Upon approval of the undergraduate major adviser, one of the 300-level courses may be replaced by the following choice of courses: (1) an extra departmental course in a suitable supporting subject (such as art history, history, or political science); OR (2) by French 361. French 361 is an optional course in English which may be taken by non-majors, or in addition to the major, or as the extra departmental course to be counted towards the major. All courses must be taken for letter grade.
NOTE:
--A total of 9 courses at the 300- and 400-levels are required for the major; students who for any reason exempt one of the courses in the required sequence should take another upper-level course to complete the required number.
--Students who study in Paris with EDUCO may find they are taking courses for which the assigned Emory equivalence is FREN 371 or FREN 381. These are special numbers reserved only for certain EDUCO courses, and they do count as 300-level courses toward the French major.
*Students who declared their majors prior to Fall 2008 may choose to fulfill the requirements stated above OR to follow the rules for the “old” major, which were as follows:
I. 203, 310, and 314 all required
II. Any three of the following required (with the same exception for 361 as stated above): 312, 331, 341, 351, 361, 385, 391. (313 does NOT count under these guidelines.)
III. Three 400-level courses required, subject to same restrictions as above.
Requirements for Minor
The French Studies minor consists of French 203, 310, 314 plus two additional courses at the 300-level. French 313 may count as one of the 300-level, and is strongly recommended for a French Studies minor. In certain cases, qualified students may obtain permission from the Director of Undergraduate Studies to take one course at the 400-level. All courses must be taken for letter grade.
NOTE: Students who begin taking French at Emory at higher level than 203 will still be expected to take a total of five courses to earn the minor, and should consult with the DUS regarding course selection.
