Making use of a variety of media and texts that underline the diversity of France and the francophone world, students' attention is drawn to intellectual discourses shaping the development of francophone culture and societies. Advanced language skills are honed via active engagement with authentic materials including literature, file, critical/academic writing, the media and music. Students are thus exposed to numerous ideas, philosophies and avenues into research while developing their reading, writing, listening and speaking skills to a high level of competency. -- Course Website
