Check if you qualifyThis programme combines French language and literature with English education, preparing you to teach French in Ghanaian schools or work in translation, communication, and other language-related fields. It is offered full-time at the Kumasi campus and is designed for students who enjoy learning languages and want to pass that knowledge on to others.
What a French with English Education degree involves
Degrees of this kind usually cover both French and English in depth: grammar, composition, phonetics, literature, and translation. You also study how people learn languages and how to teach them effectively, including lesson planning and classroom management. Most graduates go into teaching at the senior high school level, but the skills are equally useful in translation, interpretation, tourism, and international communication.
How competitive admission is
This programme is less competitive than many other degree courses, so if you have strong passes in English and your other core subjects, you have a good chance of being admitted. Meeting the university's general admission requirements is essential, and taking French at WASSCE may improve your application. Always check the official university guidelines for current eligibility.
