Students can master the French language through immersive classroom experiences and an optional exchange at a French-speaking university. They will participate in intensive summer language-immersion programs or apply for a summer job in a Francophone country. Students will develop extensive knowledge of intellectual and cultural developments in the French-speaking world, preparing them to live and work across the globe in a career that demands their bilingual communication skills.
Wilfrid Laurier University’s French program opens innumerable doors. In a bilingual country that requires people with strong analytical and communicative skills in both French and English, a French degree from the university prepares them for life after graduation.
The opportunities are endless for French students at Wilfrid Laurier University. They will study a wide range of subjects, including:
- Advanced writing in French;
- The diverse cultures of the French-speaking world;
- French and francophone literature, film, music and animation;
- French-English translation;
- French grammar (beginner, intermediate and advanced level); and
- The reflection and practice of teaching in French.
The fundamentals of business are at the heart of any organization and many careers. For students who complete their degree in an Arts, Economics, Science or Music program, Wilfrid Laurier University's Management option will provide them with an understanding of the core principles of the business world, including accounting, marketing, human resources, operations, policy, and finance.
