Each student lives with a host family, and all students participate in a week-long excursion to the remarkable archeological and geographic sites of Morocco, from Casablanca and Fez to the Atlas Mountains. The Qu bec Program at the University of Laval is a bit shorter than the Morocco Program, and is a superb training ground for students at many different levels of French. All students are tested and placed in appropriate courses upon arrival. Here, too, students live with host families, participate in the ebullience of Qu bec's summer festival, and plunge into Qu b cois culture. The program in St. Malo, France, affiliated with the Universit de Haute Bretagne, offers excellent language training to students who have had only three semesters of French.
Host families help with pronunciation and even recipes for the region's famous cr pes.
All of these programs' credits transfer easily as regular UW credits. A number of travel grants for study abroad are available. Other Programs There are also many other programs abroad which students may wish to explore. For example, a spring semester program in Paris, sponsored by the UW-Milwaukee, stresses language competency and French culture. Students are housed at an International dormitory in the student community of the Cit Universitaire and take courses with their Director, a faculty member from the UW system, and also at the long-established Cours de Civilisation at the Sorbonne.
