Overview of French Postgraduate Courses

The Department of French Studies offers a range of postgraduate courses. Candidates should carefully consider which course most closely corresponds to their qualifications, aims and interests before enrolling, although transfer from one course to another is sometimes possible.

Candidates should also consult the relevant parts of the University Calendar for regulations and by-laws governing the Masters and PhD degrees.

Please contact the postgraduate coordinator for further details and advice.

Please note that the entry qualifications given in the following information are the normal requirements for graduates of Australian universities. In general, graduates of other universities with equivalent qualifications are also admitted to candidature without further study. Candidates not holding such a degree but who can satisfy the Department and the Faculty of Arts that they have equivalent qualifications and/or experience, are also considered.

Irrespective of the basis on which they are admitted to candidature, students can be required to complete supplementary work in areas considered by the Department to be essential for their postgraduate studies.

Entry to all courses is subject to approval by both the Chair of Department and the Faculty of Arts (or Academic Board).
