03-23/07/2016 - International Summer School: "Experience French Culture and Heritage" (France)

Paul-Valéry University Montpellier is organising the International Summer School: "Experience French Culture and Heritage".

It will take place between 3 - 23 July 2016, in the South of France.

A university of culture and debate, open to the world, Paul-Valéry University is part of the oldest academic tradition in Europe (Montpellier University was founded in 1289) and has many assests, including its surroundings: a city and a region focused on youth and culture. Paul-Valéry University is a humanist university that promotes its values and the diversity of education in its core disciplines : Arts, Literature, Languages, and Human and Social Sciences.

This Summer School is designed for international students. It combines language and culture courses, as well as cultural activities, in order to experience and better understand the French way of life. It is suitable for students wishing to have a first experience in a French university and for students preparing for an academic mobility in France.
It is divided into two parts:
- academic courses three days per week,
- cultural activities two days per week.

The academic offer comprises French as a foreign language, with a beginners level (A-basic user) and a more advanced level (B-independent user). Courses will focus on everyday language skills (comprehension/expression) as well as on getting used to a French academic
environment.

The added-value of this programme is a wide-ranging offer of courses in French culture, given by Professors and Assistant Professors, combining History, Literature, Philosophy, Politics, Economy and Arts. Courses can be be given in French or in English.
