Study Abroad Program at APSU - Quebec, Canada

     Austin Peay's Study Abroad in Quebec program is an intensive French language immersion course offered through the Mid-Continent Consortium. It is open to students who have completed a minimum of one year of college-level French or its equivalent.
     The immersion program is centered at the École de Langue française et  de culture québécoise at the Université du Québec à Chicoutimi .

The program uses a combination of coursework, homestay and organized activities to create a total immersion environment. Students take courses in language, conversation and the culture of Quebec. Courses are taught by native faculty entirely in French.   

    In the afternoons, students choose from a number of organized activities, including volleyball, hiking, canoeing, theater, dance, art and singing folk songs. All activities are organized by a team of energetic French language monitors who keep students speaking French throughout the day.
    Weekends include optional excursions to visit the cities of Quebec and/or Montreal, as well as the Lac St. Jean and Saguenay regions of the province of Quebec.
     For advanced students, there is a three-week course in Business French, as well as a program in Pedagogy for teachers of French. Other options are available year-round, including French and Snow, French and Nature, and semester-length immersion courses.
