In literature study, we aim to develop students' capacity to enjoy works of literature written at different periods, to discover their structures, meanings and intentions. Students learn to judge and express themselves in French on literary topics. Finally, our emphasis on French culture, politics and society aims to combine fluency in French with an understanding of France, both metropolitan and overseas. Exchanges The Faculty has official exchange agreements with Lyon III, the Institut des Sciences Politiques in Paris, with Nice University and with the French University of the South Pacific. In addition our students may take advantage of the official agreement between the ANU Economics Faculty and the Ecole sup rieure des Sciences commerciales of Angers.
Further exchanges are in process.
The French Government offers various scholarships to study or teach in France. Most of our students do so in their fourth year. ANU scholarships are also available. Anyone intending to enrol in French should see the Convener of the French program by Orientation Week at the latest. Placement tests will be held before the beginning of first term, and these will determine the level of entry.
