Planning Your Program 

The Department of Modern Literatures and Cultures offers a major and a minor in French. Students majoring in French must complete a senior research project and must complete at least five 300 level French courses and four 400 level French courses. Students who spend a semester or year studying abroad, must plan to complete at least one 400 level course at Richmond upon their return.  

French minors must take four 300 level courses, two of which must be in literature, and one 400-level course. All students must have satisfied their COM2 general education language requirements before beginning 300 level coursework.
