Department of French and Italian

The French Division at the University of Colorado features nine tenure-line faculty members, as well as several instructors. They specialize in topics ranging from the Middle Ages and Renaissance to the twenty-first-century Francophone novel and the literature of the Francophone world. Two faculty have received prestigious National Endowment for the Humanities Fellowships in recent years, and a total of six books have been published by the faculty in the last four years, making CU’s French division one of the most productive centers of research nationwide.
