This course combines politics and international relations with the study of French, which is spoken by hundreds of millions of people around the world. This provides a valuable skill set, ideally tailored to the increasingly globalised workplace.

French can be studied from beginners' level and post-A level (or equivalent).

You will study the politics of individual countries and governments and the relationships between countries, communities and individuals.

Politics is organised around three themes:
  • political theory
  • comparative and national politics
  • international relations.


You will follow a structured language course in French, as well as explore the richness of French and Francophone history and culture, choosing from a range of units in literature, film, history, thought, politics, linguistics, and visual culture. You will spend your third year abroad in a French-speaking country, extending your language skills and cultural knowledge. To find out more about studying abroad, visit the Centre for Study Abroad.

Both schools encourage strong synergy between research and teaching, resulting in a vibrant learning environment as staff respond to new research in their teaching. This course combination offers an enriching experience with exciting intellectual challenges, providing a wide range of options that allow you to pursue your own interests.

Teaching is delivered through lectures, tutorials, seminars, workshops, and one-to-one project supervision. Assessments may include presentations, essays, commentaries, exams, collaborative projects, debates, podcasts, video essays, and dissertations.

Our course will ensure you practise a range of skills, which will make you attractive to future employers in the sector of your choice.


All modern languages students have access to our state-of-the-art Multimedia Centre. You can also access extracurricular activities such as talks by visiting speakers, societies, language cafés, student newspapers, and talent shows.
