The BA program culminates in the writing of a Senior Thesis.
Students in French and Francophone Studies select a topic in line with their previous study of French literature and culture and in consultation with their faculty. Students undertake a yearlong independent research project of their own design using texts, films, artwork, interviews, or other materials. Students may elect to write a critical thesis in English, a comparative thesis, or a work of translation with a critical component.
It's your chance to research what interests you. Write. Reflect. Discover. The faculty is here to support you as you pursue your passions.
