Course Summary

French reflects the dynamism and cultural diversity of the French-speaking world, focusing on the language, culture and society of metropolitan France, and opening up perspectives on a range of global cultures. Students can explore a variety of contemporary issues, historical periods and geographical areas through a range of media, including art, cinema, linguistics and literature.

Politics is concerned with the sources of conflict, co-operation, power and decision-making within and between societies, how differences are expressed through ideology and organisation, and how, if at all, disagreements and problems are resolved.
