| Description: | The Département d’études françaises et québécoises puts the emphasis on the acquisition, the quality, and the improvement of the French language at all levels, and intends to serve beginner, intermediate, and advanced students as well as native speakers. The program is composed of five levels, each of which contains a minimum of two grammar and writing courses and one course focusing on aural comprehension and expression. This provides the students with a coherent and logical learning process by the end of which they can understand, read, speak, and write French correctly. The Department also offers a number of inter and multidisciplinary courses designed for both native and advanced non-native speakers.

Through the study of the works of meaningful francophone artists, students will better understand and appreciate the history of the francophonie and its evolution.
