Course Overview

Our French and Italian BA is for you if you have studied either or both French and Italian to A-level, and wish to study both of those languages to a degree level while developing your understanding of the social, political, and cultural forces that have shaped contemporary France, the Francophone world, and Italy. This course allows you to take French or Italian from a beginner level if you wish to. You will divide your time equally between both Italian and French and by the end of the course you will reach an equivalent standard of knowledge and ability in both languages. Leicester is one of the top ten places in the UK to study Modern Languages (The Guardian University Guide 2020) and we rank high for student satisfaction in the annual National Student Survey.
