Admission to Degree Program

All degree programs in the Department of French and Italian are open enrollment. However, special limitations apply for teaching majors.

The Discipline

The study of French or Italian language and literature sharpens analytical and communicative skills. Students develop proficiency in listening, reading, writing, and speaking, and they learn to use literature as a means to discover and broaden their understanding of culturally specific as well as universal issues and values.

Career Opportunities

Italian and French are valuable research and communication tools for students in music, art, history, European studies, international relations, library science, and comparative literature. Many have chosen a major or minor in Italian or French in addition to a second major or minor in an area such as accounting or business management, or as preparation for professional programs in public administration, business administration, organizational behavior, dentistry, law, or medicine.

Many of our students have opted for a career in government service, working with an embassy, the State Department, the CIA, and other government agencies.
Other students have gone into travel and tourism, working with tour agencies, airlines, major hotel chains, or resort communities.
The computer industry also provides employment opportunity for our graduates. Many computer companies have expanded into foreign markets and hire people who can translate computer and software instruction and sales publications in a foreign language.

General Information

The Department of French and Italian strongly recommends that StDev 317, a 1-credit-hour course, be taken at the end of the sophomore year or the beginning of the junior year. Because liberal arts degrees provide preparation in a variety of useful fields rather than a single career track, this course is recommended to help liberal arts students focus on specific educational and occupational goals and to identify the career options or educational opportunities available to them. The course will introduce them to the resources needed for accessing information about graduate schools, internships, careers, and career development. Students will learn basic employment strategies, including the steps necessary for obtaining employment related to their own speciality.

Internships Abroad. Eight-week summer work abroad is available in France, Belgium, and Switzerland, where interns receive financial compensation while performing such services as clerking in grocery and department stores, doing accounting in banks, and serving as au pairs. Students may enroll for cooperative education credit (399R) and conversation credit (211R, 311R, or 411). The internship proves invaluable in strengthening language skills.

Oral Proficiency Interview. All French-teaching majors and minors and all Italian majors are required to enroll in Fren 491 or Ital 491 and have an oral proficiency interview (OPI) during the senior year. The results of the OPI are recorded on the student's transcript. The minimum rating of Advanced is required of all teaching majors and minors. Appointments for the interviews are made through the department secretary.

When it is necessary to strengthen oral proficiency, students are offered various opportunities: conversation and phonetics courses, the Foreign Language Student Residence, Study Abroad programs, summer internships abroad, and support materials in the Humanities Learning Resource Center, such as tapes, videos, and satellite broadcasts.

Instruction. All courses are taught in the target language unless indicated otherwise in this catalog.



French

General Information

Language Credit by Examination. A student enrolled full-time at BYU whose native language is English may receive credit by special examination for French for which he or she has acquired the equivalent skill or knowledge. However, this is possible only if no university credit has been given through AP, CLEP, or transfer of equivalent credit from another university or other institutions.

The French Language for Credit Examination is administered by the French and Italian Department twice a year: in November during fall semester and in March during winter semester. Based on enrollment, the credit examination may be administered during spring and/or summer terms. Details about this examination will be given by the student's Fren 201, 202, or 321 teacher. Please note that students can test out of classes as follows, depending on a student's status:
    Freshmen who start with French 201 can test out of:
    Fren 101, 102, and 211R (10 hours).

    Freshmen or returned missionaries from Quebec or Creole-speaking missions, etc., who start with Fren 202 (this class fulfills the GE requirement for returned missionaries from the above missions) can test out of:

    Fren 101, 102, 201, and 211R (14 hours)

    Returned missionaries from France, Belgium, Switzerland, etc., can test out of:

      Fren 101, 102, 201, 211R, and 311R (16 hours)
      For returned missionaries to be eligible to take the exam, they need to be enrolled in Fren 321.

      Note: The above five classes are not part of a French minor. The first French minor class requirement is Fren 321.

      Note: Fren 340 fulfills the GE Foreign Language option for returned missionaries from France, Belgium, and Switzerland. Fren 321 does not.

Accelerated Program. Beginning: The department offers an accelerated course in beginning French (101 and 102) every fall and winter semester. These courses are offered on the block.

Foreign Language Student Residence. An excellent alternative to or preparation for foreign residency is offered through the Foreign Language Student Residence, where participants speak, eat, and live with a French only rule. This program, with numerous cultural opportunities, is available each semester to women and men who have completed at least one year of college French. Residents may also receive 2 hours of conversation credit per semester by enrolling in a specially designated section of 211R, 311R, or 411R.

Study Abroad Programs. All students of French are encouraged to participate in a Study Abroad program. Study Abroad typically offers during spring term a language and civilization program in Paris, France. It provides an excellent opportunity for developing language proficiency and better understanding of the history and culture of France. Study Abroad also offers a semester-long program in Paris emphasizing general education courses.
