French - Advanced, Microcredential
The Microcredential in Advanced French consists of six required credit hours. Satisfactory completion of the required courses would allow the student to develop the necessary skills to conduct proficient-level communication in French through the acquisition of appropriate vocabulary, grammar, reading, writing, listening comprehension, speaking capabilities and an exploration of issues in French-speaking culture.
The Microcredential in Advanced French aligns itself with all other programs in the Department of Languages, Literatures and Cultures in that it is designed to help students gain a broader understanding of themselves, as well as the languages and cultures of others. This inherently fosters an understanding and appreciation for diverse perspectives and represents a crucial virtue in today's globalized world.
