FR 398 - French for Business Honors


In this course students learn the terminology and idioms needed to communicate in a French-speaking business environment. Equally important will be the focus on intercultural differences related to the business world with which candidates for employment should be familiar. While course content prepares students to communicate in a business setting, many of the linguistic and intercultural lessons covered will be of interest to French Studies majors and minors not necessarily on a career path to business. This course prepares students for the Diplôme de français professsionnel test given by the French Chamber of Commerce, should they opt to take it, at various levels of proficiency (B1, B2, C1).
