French Study Abroad
Every summer the French program sponsors a summer study program in Paris. Students will earn six (6) credit hours by participating in this program.
In most cases, the courses will fulfill part or all of the foreign language requirement (completion of the elementary or intermediate level). Upper-division classes in literature, culture, and language are also available for major and minor credit. Participation in these programs will satisfy the foreign study requirement for the Language and World Business degree. A faculty member accompanies students on the program. In addition to formal classes, group excursions to cultural and historical sites are an integral part of the programs.
For Summer 2009, Professor John Romeiser will accompany the UT in Paris program. For more information on this program, click here. For a program flyer, click here.
Students are also encouraged to study abroad, particularly through participation in the International Student Exchange Program (ISEP).
The French program is also prepared to recommend other summer study opportunities and year abroad programs for students who are interested in foreign study. Credits from recognized foreign study programs can readily be transferred to The University of Tennessee.
Students are required to consult with a French advisor before registering for courses in France or another French-speaking country. A stop at the Programs Abroad Office is highly recommended as well.
