About this course

- Focus on professional language skills and contemporary culture.

  • Study abroad with our partners in Paris, Dijon and Angers.

  • Honours students spend a year abroad after Year 3, usually working as an English-speaking teaching assistant, gaining experience on a work placement, or studying at a foreign institution.

  • Stevenson Exchange Scholarship – a competitive award with funding towards a project undertaken while abroad.

  • French can also be studied within the LLB Honours Law with a Modern Language.

  • Become a fluent linguist.

  • The study of Law is regarded not as purely vocational, but part of a broader education.

    Please note: studying law within the BA degree will not qualify you for entry to the legal profession. For professional qualifications in Law, students should follow the LLB programme.

    Ranked Top 10 in Scotland for French (Complete University Guide 2024); Ranked Top 10 in the UK for Law (The Times/Sunday Times University Ranking 2024).

    This course is part of our flexible BA Humanities and Social Science Degree programme. With our BA (Honours) degree you can choose from subjects in Humanities, Social Sciences and Business, with two of your three subject choices taught by the Faculty of Humanities & Social Sciences.

    The BA degree is a three year course and the Honours degree is normally a four year course. This allows you to try new subjects, develop your own ideas, develop a broad range of knowledge and enhance your employability.

    You should only enter one of the UCAS codes on your application form. Acceptance on one of these subject codes will enable you to study any combination of subjects. Only one application will be considered. This is lifted from page 50 of the prospectus.
