Introduction

The Department of French, Italian and Spanish offers instruction in the fields of French, Italian and Spanish together with courses bearing the title Romance Studies. (The latter courses do not constitute a Major Field of study.)

Advanced Placement and Credit by Special Assessment

French, Italian and Spanish-speaking students or students with more than high-school matriculation in these languages (including graduates of a bilingual or immersion program) must consult the Department to be placed in a course corresponding to their level of linguistic competence.

Students seeking credit by special assessment should consult the Department regarding courses available for credit in this manner. Native speakers are not eligible to take language courses by special assessment or to receive advanced credit for them.

Study Abroad

Noting that the advancement of knowledge and understanding is a global enterprise, the Mission Statement of the ɫ strongly advocates international contacts among staff and students. In this context, the Department of French, Italian and Spanish encourages its students to take advantage of possibilities for studying off-campus, wherever one of its target languages is spoken. Detailed information on courses and programs in French (in Quebec or elsewhere), Italian and Spanish is available from the Department and/or the Centre for International Students and Study Abroad.

Students planning to study off-campus must obtain a letter of permission from their faculty. They are strongly advised to consult the Department of French, Italian and Spanish beforehand to discuss details concerning course selection and transfer of credit.
