Students who have taken one or more years

Advising Notes
1. CR/NC grading is not permitted for
courses in the French major.
2. Students must receive a minimum grade
of C in each upper-division course used
toward the French major.
3. French majors who have studied French
in high school or who by culture or
experience can speak French at a certain
level of proficiency must consult with a
French adviser to determine which re-quired
lower-division courses, if any,
may be waived. (Also see Credit Allow-ance
in Foreign Language.) French ma-jors
who are eligible to enroll immedi-ish
and familiarity with Hispanic culture
can be very useful for social workers, health
professionals, elementary or secondary
school teachers, teachers of English to speak-ers
of other languages, lawyers, or any other
profession in which ethnic understanding
is important. For example, a growing area
for language majors with an interest in
computers is in translation and web design.
Many language majors aim for a teaching
career. Teaching at the community college
level requires at least a master’s degree,
while teaching high school requires subject
matter preparation in the language (French
or Spanish) plus a teaching credential. There
is currently a demand for high school lan-guage
teachers due to the foreign language
admission requirement in the University of
California and California State University
systems. There are many opportunities for
teaching in elementary schools having bi-lingual/
cross-cultural programs in Spanish.
Please visit the department office if you
need advice that can help you plan the
course of study that will best meet your
career goals.
