THEMATIC COURSES IN FRENCH ("Support RI* courses")
Each semester, 5 or 6 themed courses are offered in French by UPVM3 Direction des Relations internationales et de la Francophonie - DRIF (*RI for Relations internationales).
Most courses are offered during the 2 semesters. The range of courses may change from year to year.
- Cours de FLE - Grammaire et Méthodologie
- Phonétique et pratique de l’oral
- Pratique de l’écrit
- Civilisation du Sud de la France
- Histoire de l’Art : du moderne au contemporain (Semestre 2 uniquement)
- Géopolitique du monde contemporain (Semestre 2 uniquement)
- Masculin/Féminin : La société française au miroir du cinéma (Semestre 1 uniquement)
- Problématiques et Enjeux de la transition écologique (Semestre 2 uniquement)
⇒ Detailed course description (in French)
⇒ Time schedule (in French): Semestre 1 (2024-2025) / Semestre 2 (2024-2025)
Public: these thematic courses are reserved and designed for English-speaking students enrolled in a partner university and on a bilateral fee-paying program at UPVM3.
Course duration: 3 hours per week over the 13 weeks of the semester.
Number of courses per student : Up to 4 or 5 courses per semester, for a maximum total of around 15 hours per week. Depending on the home university, some of these classes may be “required classes”.
Program durations:
- September to May (academic year)
- September to December (1st semester)
- January to May (2nd semester)
Language level : Most but not all of the courses are level-based. If applicable, the level required will be checked when applying.
Validation: These courses do not grant ECTS because they are not part of a university degree. They give credits, which are generally transferred by US universities, 1 hour = 1 credit.
The final grade also depends on class attendance. If the student is absent from class or arrives late, the final grade will be lower.
Places are limited and pre-registration is required.
