Learning outcomes

The Bachelor in Ancient and Modern Languages and Literatures trains students seeking to become specialists in the study of the French and Latin languages and literatures. By examining relevant texts, they will gradually develop the ability to master the fundamentals of French and Latin – in terms of linguistics, grammar, syntax and vocabulary – and of literary genres and the history of literature in these two languages. In Latin, they will also be able to easily translate intermediate-level texts. The challenge for them, at the end of the third annual block, is to be able to use the knowledge they have acquired in French and/or Latin to write up an individual assignment of limited scope (Bachelor's paper), applying rigorous academic criteria.
