French
A major in French allows students to study the language,
literature and culture either as beginners or advanced learners.
Students who enter the major at post-HSC or advanced levels
will be exempted from some language subjects.
As from 2004, students may enrol in a minor
in French.
Major Study
A major in French for beginners or near beginners consists
of 66 credit points, and must include 18 cp at 100-level,
24 cp at 200-level and 24 cp at 300-level, as set out below.
Students who have achieved a strong 2 Unit HSC pass or equivalent
may choose to enter the language sequence at the level of
FREN251 and complete a 54 cp major comprising 6 cp (civilisation)
at 100-level, 24 cp at 200-level and 24 cp at 300-level, as
set out below.
All students wishing to enter the French major at the level
of FREN251 must obtain formal approval from the French co-ordinator.
Subject to the pre-requisites listed in the subject database,
language and literature/civilization subjects may be taken
independently of one another, eg French 1A Language may be
taken without also taking EURO110. However students wishing
to complete a major in French must complete the sequence set
out below.
Native or near-native speakers, whose major also consists
of 54 cp, may be granted waivers for FREN251 and FREN252.
Such waivers will be granted only at the time of first enrolment
in French, in accordance with the Program's policy and with
the formal approval of the French co-ordinator or the Convenor
of Program. Replacement subjects to make up the 54cp for the
major are to be chosen from the additional subjects listed
below. Credit may be granted for language courses taken at
University level in accordance with established University
of Wollongong guidelines.

Minor study in Languages other
than English (LOTE): French
From 2004, students in the Faculty of Arts will be able
to take a Minor consisting of four sequential subjects in
French.
The minor will consist of 28 or 32 credit points of language
study (28cp for students beginning at 100-level and 32 cp
form students beginning at upper levels).
Example:
A student beginner could take a Minor by studying FREN151,
FREN152, FREN251 and FREN252.
A student who had studied French to HSC level and commencing
University French at second year level could take a Minor
by studying FREN251, FREN252, FREN351 and FREN352.
Whilst the minor will not be stipulated on the student’s
testamur at graduation, it will be recorded on the academic
transcript.
