Regulations effective September 1, 2006

As a graduate of Athabasca University's French program, you will attain a sufficient degree of competence in oral and written French to communicate effectively. The courses in the program foster an awareness of the linguistic and cultural differences between French and English. Upon completion of the program, you will understand how to conduct further research into the subject matter in order to increase your linguistic competence.
