Carleton University is situated in the bilingual community of Ottawa-Hull and students are encouraged to take advantage of the multiple opportunities for the use of the French language. Theater, film, radio, television, the press, conversations with people from all walks of life, French-language libraries and bookstores are at hand to supplement academic programs. Classes are conducted in French unless otherwise indicated. The Department has at its disposal a language laboratory, audio-visual, multimedia and Internet equipment for use in language, literature, linguistics and translation classes. Updated information on programs and activities is available on the Internet at: http://www.carleton.ca under the menu items Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences and French (http://www.carleton.ca/french/Fre.homepage.html).
English-speaking students who wish to graduate with a B.A. are normally required to pass an oral examination testing their proficiency in spoken French. The examination takes place at the beginning of the final year with the option of repeating it at the end of the same academic year.
In order to graduate, students must fulfill all University graduation Regulations (see p. 48), all Faculty regulations, including those relating to First-Year Seminars and Breadth requirements (see p. 63), and all Major regulations and requirements as set out below.
The Department of French has two student exchanges, one with the Université du Québec in Trois-Rivières, and the other with the Université de Savoie in Chambéry, France. These exchanges make it possible for a maximum of four Honours students, normally English-speaking, two of whom go to Québec and two to France, to spend their Third year in an immersion milieu. Financial assistance is also available. For more information please consult the Department.
Two patterns are available in the Honours program, one focusing on literary studies, the other on French linguistics. Course patterns are designed to ensure an appreciation of French and French-Canadian language, literature, and competence in the French language. Interested candidates will note the general regulations governing Honours .
