French Interdisciplinary Studies (FINS)
Department of French
Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences
These courses are intended to meet the needs of a broad range of students who are interested in expanding their knowledge of the French-language presence in other disciplines, or in improving their passive knowledge of written and spoken French (reading and listening) with a view to applying this knowledge in other disciplines.
Some FINS courses are offered with English as the language of instruction. While FINS courses are not part of the B.A. or Certificate programs in French, four credits can be accumulated to constitute a Minor in French Interdisciplinary Studies.
French Placement for Language Students
Students who have not previously taken a course in the French Department must complete the Placement Test on Carleton Central before registering as per instructions received through their connect e-mail account. Students should note that they cannot go backward in a sequence of levels in language courses. Students desiring a French credit to satisfy the language requirement of their department or school should consult that department or school.
