Welcome! Bienvenue!

Simon Fraser University's Department of French is committed to providing opportunities for students to develop near-native competence in the French language and acquire academic and professional skills in French and Francophone literatures, cultures and linguistics, preparing students to become competent, informed and innovative participants on the Canadian (national and provincial) scene and in the Francophone world.

All our programs aim at giving our students not only excellent communication skills but also the solid basis necessary to understand and appreciate the cultural and linguistic diversity of the Francophone world.
