About this programme

The "German-French Studies" Bachelor of Arts programme is an international course of study with a joint degree. It arose from the cooperation between Bonn University in Germany and Sorbonne Université in Paris, France. The course of study is part of the Franco-German University (FGU). It is focused on philological and cultural knowledge about France and Germany and the mediation of German and French culture. The students take classes that are offered by the Department of Romance Studies as well as the Department of German Studies. This curriculum includes lectures and courses in literature and (inter)cultural studies, in linguistics and comparative studies, and language courses. The programme also includes an obligatory practical internship in the partner country. This allows the students to deepen their intercultural experience as well as take the first steps towards the creation of an international professional network. Graduates of the course are generalists who have acquired valuable expert knowledge, practical language skills and various key qualifications. The Bachelor’s programme prepares students for further scientific qualification in a Master’s programme as well as for a direct start in their professional lives.
