Both oral and written skills are emphasized. In addition we offer culture, literature and film courses as well as advanced special topic courses covering economic and political issues.

Francophonie, specifically in the African diaspora and parts of Canada, is an important cultural phenomenon in the world today. We thus offer courses designed to expose the students to the Francophone World and its many diverse cultures and literatures.
