Business Management with a European Language - French (BSc)

The degree in Business Management with French is designed to combine the main elements of a Business Management degree with French. The first year provides the core building blocks of management and business subjects, together with one module in French.

Year two develops from this base, giving equal weighting to the business and language subjects. Students continue to focus on the core Business Management modules, whilst the language component concentrates on expression, translation and business language, providing the ideal preparation for the third year which is spent abroad. Here, students will be taught level two Business Management in French.

The fourth year, when students return to Cardiff, extends the business and management content of the degree with three core and three optional modules, together with one module to maintain the language input.

Overall, the degree of Business Management with French prepares students for careers in international business with an ability to work in French as well as in English.

This is due to the fact that some modules have limited numbers of places available, which are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis, while others have minimum student numbers required before they will run, to ensure that an appropriate quality of education can be delivered; some modules require students to have already taken particular subjects, and others are core or required on the programme you are taking. Modules may also be limited due to timetable clashes, and although the University works to minimise disruption to choice, we advise you to seek advice from the relevant School on the module choices available.
