Both cohorts are quite small and streamlined compared to others at UWA so you become quite good friends with everyone as well as the professors. Both units are very hands on and practical which suits my learning style and shows me how I’ll be able to use my skills after university. The professors in the School of Humanities are very hands on and happy to help whenever you need it. Throughout my degree, I’ve found that they really took an interest and care in your learning. ### Course Structure This major is available in three different streams, catering from beginners through to near-native speakers. It is possible to combine French Studies with a second major from within Arts, Biomedical Science, Commerce or Science. ### Popular combinations [![German Studies](https://www.uwa.edu.au/study/-/media/uwafs/teasers/imgbtn-german-studies.jpg) German Studies](https://www.uwa.edu.au/study/courses/german-studies) [![Business Economics](https://www.uwa.edu.au/study/-/media/uwafs/teasers/imgbtn-economics-single-major.jpg) Business Economics](https://www.uwa.edu.au/study/courses/business-economics) [![Political Science and International Relations](https://www.uwa.edu.au/study/-/media/uwafs/teasers/imgbtn-politicalscienceinternationalrelations.jpg) Political Science and International Relations](https://www.uwa.edu.au/study/courses/political-science-and-international-relations) ## Popular Combinations [German Studies German is one of the most widely-spoken languages in Europe and as a result, can open doors to many enriching cultural experience.](https://www.uwa.edu.au/study/courses/german-studies) [Business Economics Studying Business Economics, you will understand the way the world works -
