French undergraduate programs
Courses in language acquisition at all levels
Advanced-level courses are offered in language, linguistics and literature. All courses are conducted in French.
If courses have zero as a second digit, they form a basic program in language acquisition by proceeding in complementary pairs (1034/1044, 2034/2054, 3034/3054, 4034/4054).
We put the emphasis on different aspects of language learning such as oral or written communication.
Each pair of courses must be completed with a grade of C or higher before beginning the next level.
A different sequence is followed by graduates of immersion programmes and by francophones.
For more information, contact undergraduate advisor Dr. Patrick Bergeron.
