What is new and different about the French Studies Minor?



The Studies minor consists of 21 credits, 15 of which are earned abroad, and 6 of which are taken on campus before departure; the traditional French Minor requires 18-21 credits, all of which ar normally taken on campus. In order to earn a French Studies Minor, a student must participate in a semester abroad program sponsored by the Department of Foreign Languages and Literatures.

How is the Studies Minor advantageous to students?



 Because the Studies Minors were designed with the University of Delaware study abroad programs in mind, all of the requirements for the French Studies Minors can be met during the semester overseas.
The experience of living makes  the fRench Studies Minor an invaluable  asset in many disciplines and careers.
