French is a major language of international communication. It is the second most widely learned language after English and the sixth most widely spoken language in the world. French is offered as a second language (optional) during the first and second years of undergraduate BA and BSW programmes at School of Social Work, Roshni Nilaya, Mangaluru. The courses are designed to help students comprehend the language's grammar, vocabulary, and nuances, and the culture of the country. Being bilingual and learning a foreign language helps students to improve not only language skills but also important social skills needed to work with people from different cultures and backgrounds.
Today, with globalization the world has become a smaller place. As a result, learning a foreign language is a valuable career asset.
