American University Center of Provence academic program focuses upon French and Arabic language and civilization, Middle East area studies, immigration, inter-religious communication and cross-cultural mediation. On-site French courses are supplemented by a one-week program in Tunisia for fall and Morocco for spring combining lectures, visits, and guided encounters with local population. All AUCP course work is conceived to be highly pertinent to the on-site setting. French Practicum, the mandatory core program, provides an especially strong link between academic work, direct French cultural contact, and the guided reflection on the student’s overall experience. The program is open to non-French majors. However, all courses are taught in French, and a minimum of two years college French or equivalent is required. Students sign a binding language pledge to speak only French during their stay. Application Requirements: Minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0 The FAQ document attached contains helpful program information specific to Alma College students.
