2° Student must have developed, in the Germanic and Romance languages he wishes to include in his programme :
– passive communicative skills (oral and written) and active communicative skills (oral and written) at level « B2+ » (‘vantage') in the Common European Framework of Reference;
– linguistic skills (the study of grammar and its structures);
– literary skills (history of literature, the analysis and interpretation of literary texts);
– broad cultural skills (the study of the "civilisation" of the countries where the two languages studies are spoken: historical data and contemporary reality).
If the student does not demonstrate the passive and active communicative skills, he must pass a level test organised by the programme committee.
In the absence of courses in one of the three other skills (linguistic, literary or cultural) in his previous studies, prerequisites will be added to the student's masters programme (without exceeding a total of 15 credits).
In the absence of courses in the linguistic and/or literary and cultural skills, access to the master is subject to the student passing the Preparotory Year for Master in Modern Languages and Literatures: General, the programme of which is established based on the student's file.
Course equivalences are submitted for approval to the chairman of the jury, the secretary of the jury and the academic faculty secretary.
The 30 credits of the English Studies minor, the Dutch Studies minor, the German Studies minor, the French Studies minor, the Hispanic Studies minor or the Italian Studies minor satisfy these requirements.
