(e) five pre-approved international courses in the target language and culture in either “Literature” and/or “Linguistics” and/or “Culture” and/or “Civilization”, taken at a foreign university during the year abroad (see Notes below);

(f) two “Directed Studies Abroad” Distance Education courses taken during the year abroad (see Note {3} below)

Notes:

{1} Students are required to take courses in distinct areas of concentration while abroad. They will have their choice of taking three pre-approved courses in either “Literature” and/or “Linguistics” and/or “Culture” and/or “Civilization”. The specific courses taken in an area depend upon the availability of courses in the area at the host university and the student’s program concentration. As well, all students will be required to take two advanced language-training courses. These are standard and available at any exchange partner university.

{2} Students in the Honours program that are unable to take the required courses abroad, for any reason, will be permitted to transfer to the General or Honours with SLE programs. The modular design of the Modern Languages curriculum (a common first two years curriculum) permits this transfer to another program without any loss in time or additional costs to the student.

{3} Students also will register for the “Directed Studies Abroad” Distance Education courses. Students on exchange will be required to attend specific cultural events (museums; art galleries, etc.), participate in assigned activities and write reports on their experiences.

(a) two Social Sciences courses
(b) two Arts or two Sciences courses
(c) two additional courses from Arts, Social Sciences or Science.

Other requirements:
