French and History

French and History at Aberdeen brings together two subjects, adding in-depth study of a modern European language and culture to a fascinating and broad study of history through the ages. You will study at a university steeped in 500 years of national and international human developments. The language and transferable skills you’ll gain will open up a wide spectrum of careers.

French & Francophone Studies at Aberdeen has a long-standing reputation for teaching and research. The programme explores the diversity of French and Francophone culture and the complex global influence of France and the French language over the centuries. You will add to your growing language skills with diverse courses in contemporary society and politics, philosophy and history, film and visual culture, advanced translation skills, and literature from the Renaissance to the present day.

The University of Aberdeen is delighted to offer eligible self-funded international on-campus undergraduate students a £6,000 scholarship for every year of their programme. This compulsory evaluation is designed to find out if your academic writing is of a sufficient standard to enable you to succeed at university and, if you need it, to provide support to improve. It is completed on-line via MyAberdeen with clear instructions to guide you through it.

If you pass the evaluation at the first assessment it will not take much of your time. If you do not, you will be provided with resources to help you improve.
