French is an official language in dozens of countries around the world including, France, Canada, Gabon, Haiti, Belgium, Senegal, Switzerland, and Cameroon, just to name a few. And French is used as a language of culture, communication and commerce in many other countries across the world as well. French is the fifth most common language globally with more than 300 million speakers. French students at UWM develop a global perspective and a better understanding of cultural diversity on a global scale. A French degree can serve as a gateway to a wide variety of career opportunities in business, finance, tech, marketing, journalism, translation, hospitality, architecture, engineering, the arts, government, and more.As students move through the French curriculum, they develop greater fluency and use their knowledge of French to explore the cultures, arts, societies, literature, history, and politics of French speaking people from around the world. In almost all of the French program’s courses, students read, write about, and discuss course topics entirely in French. Many students studying French at UWM spend time studying abroad in a French speaking country and often find that immersing themselves in the language and culture of another country can be an extremely enriching intellectual and personal experience. Students who enter UWM already at an advanced French level can earn both a bachelor’s and master’s in 5 years (instead of 6) in French and Francophone literatures and cultures or in Translation and Interpretation.
