Hey guys. I'm studying International Languages so my 3rd year will be spent in either a Francophone or Spanish-speaking country, but realistically it's going to be the former. Obviously if I'm in, say, Canada, I can't study French as a subject because it wouldn't make sense to teach it as a second language (and I don't think UCD teach English as one either).

Does anyone know what kind of material I'd study instead? Of course I'd be keeping Spanish as a language being taught the way I'll be learning it in UCD (but through French ), but what else do people generally study? I'm terrified that it'll be awful stuff like history and culture! And actually, do they teach the country's native language as a subject for erasmus students? I'm not too sure how the whole thing works and can't really find definitive answers.
