Overview
You will carry out an advanced study of French language, culture and society whilst studying the core modules required for a Qualifying Law Degree.
You will have optional modules on the Law side of the programme enabling you to pursue studies in more specialist legal areas eg international law, business law and family law. You will spend your third year abroad, either studying at a partner institution in France or undertaking a suitable work placement, thus completing the degree in four years full-time.
Programme structure
Programme Year One
In addition to studying some of the modules that must be studied and passed in order to gain a Qualifying Law Degree, known as the ‘Foundations of Legal Knowledge’, students also undertake French language modules with a value of 30 credits in the first year.
Programme Year Two
In addition to core modules, students choose one French optional module in semester one. There is a range of optional modules, full details of which are available on our website.
Programme Year Three
Year abroad
Students are required to spend the Year Abroad in a French-speaking country. Students normally attend a partner University on the ERASMUS scheme (e.g. Paris Sorbonne). Alternatively students may undertake a suitable work placement.
Programme Year Four
In addition to core modules, students choose one Law optional module in semester one, and two Law optional modules in semester two. Students also choose one French optional module in each semester. There is a wide range of optional modules, full details of which are available on our website. The range is sufficiently wide to enable students to specialise in one aspect of law, if they choose, or to mix options from across the curriculum. The module leaders are generally leading researchers in their field, enabling students to benefit from the latest developments in the law.
Timetabling considerations and subject prerequisites mean that not all optional modules will be available to all students every year. The list of options is reviewed each year.
