French Minor


Return to {$returnto_text} Return to: Academic Programs

Offered by the Department of English and Modern Languages


The French minor enables Mansfield University to respond to national and regional needs by preparing students in other majors for a working environment that rewards employees who are proficient in French and who grasp the historical, cultural, and political background associated with French culture.  In French-speaking areas of Canada, in the Middle East, and in northern and western Africa, French is used in professional settings - as it is, of course, in France itself and in diplomatic circles and many business settings around the world. 

After successful completion of the minor program, students will be able to:

  • Understand and speak the target language at an intermediate-mid level as described in the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (ACTFL) Proficiency Guidelines.
  • Read and write in the target language at the intermediate-mid level.
  • Demonstrate understanding of French culture.

18 s.h.
