\n Consider graduating in French with Honors!\n <\/h2>\n\n\n<\/div>\n \n \n
\n\n \n

Are you a French major (or thinking about becoming one)? Do you enjoy independent research? If so,\u00a0you should consider doing an honors thesis in French.<\/p>\n

As an honors student, you will have the opportunity to work closely with French faculty on\u00a0a thesis project related to your research interests. Each student who successfully completes an honors thesis receives the designation \u201cB.A. in French with Honors\u201d on their transcript, and an award.<\/p>\n

The B.A. in French with honors is available to students who have an overall G.P.A. of 3.0 and a G.P.A. of at least 3.5 in courses counted for French major credit.<\/p>\n

To fulfill the requirements of the Honors Program, you must complete three 400-level courses<\/strong> and write an Honors Thesis<\/strong> of 25-30 pages<\/strong>, in French, in conjunction with a 400-level course on a subject agreed upon with the course instructor.\u00a0 You will have up to two semesters to complete the thesis.<\/p>\n

The Honors Thesis will be read by the course instructor and by a second faculty reader.<\/p>\n

For further information, please contact the\u00a0 director of the Honors Program in French, Dr. Antonia Szabari<\/strong> (THH 155B).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n \n \n
