BA/BS in French and Global Humanities

Simon Fraser University's French and Global Humanities joint major combines the study of French language and culture with global humanities, an interdisciplinary program examining literature, history, and culture across world regions. Students plan their coursework in consultation with advisors from both the Department of French and the Global Humanities program, since the joint major draws lower- and upper-division courses from each discipline. The degree requires 120 units in total, including French lower- and upper-division requirements and Global Humanities lower- and upper-division requirements, alongside general elective coursework. Graduates earn a Bachelor of Arts. The program suits students interested in comparative and cross-cultural approaches to francophone and global literary, historical, and cultural studies, preparing them for further study or careers that draw on language skills and humanities-based critical thinking.
