Trosolwg
Why study French/ Mathematics at Aberystwyth University?
There is a wide range of expertise available within our Department and this is reflected in the module choices we offer. Students could choose modules on linguistics (both modern and historical); dialectical (the study of different forms of French, past and present); literature; the history of ideas and artistic movements; literary representations of Paris, travel literature and current affairs.
All students on this course will spend their third year living independently in a French-speaking country. You could choose to study at University, work as language assistant or other forms of work placements.
Mathematics has been taught in Aberystwyth since 1872, so that the department builds on over 140 of teaching excellence.
Mathematics as a subject will provide you with the opportunity to uncover a discipline that combines the identification and analysis of shapes and patterns with the ability to confidently analyse data.
During the first year, you will receive a comprehensive introduction to French studies and related research skills, in tutorial form.
You will become a student in the Department of Modern Languages that scored 93% for student satisfaction in the 2017 National Student Survey (NSS, 2017), demonstrating our commitment to provide you with an experience that is memorable and cherished. The Department of Mathematics has also scored 100% overall student satisfaction (NSS 2018).
Modern Language graduates are statistically amongst the most employable graduates. In the 2017 Destination of Leavers for Higher Education report published in 2018 demonstrated that a degree in Modern Languages provides a clear pathway to employment or further study.
