About this programme

The Department of Languages, Literatures, and Cultural Studies offers instruction in French language and literature, both in the original and in translation, and courses in the civilizations and cultures of France and French-Canada. The study of second languages is fundamental for everyone. With globalization progressing at a rapid speed, communicating with people from a variety of cultural and linguistic backgrounds will become increasingly important, both in our professional and personal lives. Canada is a multicultural and multilingual nation. By studying other cultures and languages, we do not only learn about them, but also get a deeper understanding of ourselves. Knowledge of second languages is important in many undergraduate and graduate programs, and will provide a competitive edge in any career. Some courses in French are taught by faculty in the corresponding department of St. Thomas More College. These classes or sections are designated as STM sections in the online Course
