Course summary

Chinese Studies

Chinese Studies at St Andrews will offer you exposure to the breadth and depth of Chinese linguistic and cultural practices. Going beyond the traditional model of language and literature, Chinese Studies will also include visual and pop cultures. Whilst St Andrews does not yet offer Chinese as a single Honours degree, you can take it in combination with a wide variety of other subjects as part of a joint Honours degree. The course encompasses mainstream, popular and dissident cultures in all their national, regional, ethnic and diasporic diversity. The study of texts and practices will be focused on contemporary concerns that are both Chinese and global. These include: gender and sexuality; ecology and climate change; the excesses of advanced consumer society; issues of transparency, governance and collective memory.

French

As an MA (Hons) student of French, you will develop language and communications skills to a high level of proficiency through the study of French and Francophone language, literature and culture. You will have the opportunity to engage with a number of research-led specialist topics, which include: literature and culture from the Middle Ages to the present day; French politics and culture; performance studies; intellectual history; postcolonial literature and theory; gender theory; film adaptation; modern French thought; creative writing; translation studies. During your third year, you have the opportunity to apply to study abroad in France at one of the University’s partner institutions. Students who spend a year abroad develop their linguistic skills, intercultural competence, and self-confidence.
