The aim of the degree program is to train experts with theoretical and practical skills in the field of French language and literature, or, more generally, in the field of humanities, who, owing to these skills, can creatively practise their profession at theoretical, practical, interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary levels. Graduate students will have enough theoretical knowledge to be able to continue their studies at an MA specialization.
Graduate students will be able to use the French language in speech and in writing at an advanced level, use general study techniques and basic research techniques in connection with the French language and culture, understand as a whole, summarise and translate general texts at a basic level.

At the end of each module there are complex examinations. At the end of the foundation module, students take a language proficiency examination and at the end of the main module they attempt the final examination and complete their studies. Note that the program does not offer teaching qualifications.

Entry requirements
The students who can apply for the French Studies BA Program are expected to present the documentation of their certificate of matriculation from a secondary school and to submit their application with the necessary attachments.
The university only accepts certificates, which are equivalent to the Hungarian certificate of matriculation, thus appropriate for continuing one’s studies in university education. If the certificate is not in English, the university needs an official translation, which could be a translation by the secondary school as well.
If the applicant completes their secondary education during the current term and their certificate is not issued before the application deadline, a proof of student status or a certification, which verifies that the applicant will receive matriculation is required instead. In case of being accepted as a student, however, the applicant must present their certificate of matriculation upon enrolment at the latest.
This program is not available for Hungarian citizens.
The educational and outcome requirements are defined by the Ministry of Human Capacities, Regulation No. 18/2016. (VIII. 5.). The details of the application and admission process are defined by the Organizational and Operational Regulations of ELTE.
