French

The French minor introduces you to the language, cultures and literature of the French-speaking world. Courses give you practice speaking and writing the language while you explore culture, literature and film. Beyond the classroom, you can participate in conversation tables, the French Club and the Global Scholars program on campus or travel abroad through Bradley’s multiple short-term and semester long study abroad programs. The minor is open to all students and is often paired with majors such as business, communication, psychology, sociology, international studies and other world languages.
