French and Francophone Studies
Avez-vous une passion pour la langue et la culture françaises?
At Simmons, our program will enable you to master advanced French conversation and writing skills. You'll learn to speak fluently on topics from civilization to literature.
The Gwen Ifill School of Media, Humanities, and Social Sciences offers our French minor. You’ll join a community of eager, intuitive, and hard-working students passionate about global citizenship and social justice. Through rigorous courses and independent learning, you'll deepen your understanding of French culture and refine your language skills.
We encourage our students to broaden their global perspective through study abroad opportunities in French-speaking countries. Immersing yourself overseas will enhance your fluency and cultural awareness. There, you'll develop your French language skills among native speakers.
Learning French in Boston
You'll also have the chance to learn at French cultural institutions in New England. Our students have interned at places like the French Cultural Center in Boston.
Knowing a foreign language also will set you apart in the job market. Our graduates thrive in careers in fields such as education, writing, marketing, and law.
