Retour en début de pageStudy objectives

This programme offers specialized courses in French and Romance languages and literature built on a solid general course in philosophy and letters.
The courses in Linguistics develop the mastery of the French language, both oral and written. The courses trace the development of the Romance languages from their Latin origins onwards and explain how they function thanks to our present linguistic knowledge. In the domain of literature, the students acquire basic insight into different literary theories and their application to be able to provide personal in-depth analysis of ancient and modern texts. Learning Italian or Spanish is an integral part of the programme right from the start.

Students at the end of their programme will have:

- Mastered written and oral skills in the French language;
- Mastered receptive and practical aspects of a Romance language;
- Acquired knowledge of the history of French literature and of a Romance language;
- Acquired knowledge of literary theory and criticism;
- Acquired knowledge of Latin language and literature.


Retour en début de pageEvaluation

Depending on the nature of the course and the teaching methods, the evaluation will take different forms. Some courses will involve oral and/or written evaluations (held during one of the three exam sessions: January – June – August/September), whilst the evaluation of seminars will involve more substantial student participation as well as assessment of individual course work. Evaluation methods will be explained at the beginning of each course.

Those exams relating to courses on communication skills will evaluate the student's level, i.e. the practical use of the language in relevant situations.

Teaching methods are evaluated in accordance with the current University regulations (see General regulations concerning examinations ). Students may also find additional information regarding the evaluation of courses in the course description.
