Our global partner universities for French.
Undergraduate study abroad options
You will spend your third year abroad as part of your degree, speaking the language whilst you study or work. This is often the most memorable year of your degree because you get the opportunity to try, practise and improve your language in a real life situation.
If you are interested in opportunities outside Europe you will need to speak with your academic department about what is available.
The below list of partner universities has been approved by your School as offering a suitable range of modules in your subject area. However, please note exchange places are negotiated on an annual basis so partner availability each year is subject to change.
