Popular Music with French BA (Hons)

For the Popular Music component of your programme, options include performance, technology, audio-visual music, world music, and music industry. In years two and three you focus in more detail on the areas that interest you most (such as history, psychology, audio-visual, performance, or popular composition/song-writing).<br/><br/>Our Minor in French allows you to become proficient by the time you graduate through consistent and immersive language study. Throughout the programme, you will strengthen your abilities in speaking, listening, reading and writing while gaining confidence in using French in a range of contexts. Studying French also provides access to influential literary, cinematic and intellectual traditions, as well as key social, cultural and historical discussions within the Francophone world. An optional Year Abroad in a French-speaking country offers the opportunity to deepen linguistic fluency and intercultural awareness while gaining valuable international experience that can support future career opportunities.<br/><br/>This programme is available with a Year in Industry, which will be spent on paid placement within an organisation in industry, broadly defined. You will be supported by the School of the Arts and the Department throughout, and your reflexive written account of the experience will contribute towards your final degree result. Please note it is not possible to study both a Year in Industry and a Year Abroad on this programme.<br/><br/>Most Combined Degrees allow you to adapt the weighting of each by 25% after the first year, helping you to keep your options open. Please note, however, students studying either a Business or Economics pathway in combination with another subject cannot increase from 25% to 50% or from 50% to 75% and it is not possible to transfer from a 50% to 75% Law.
