Minors in French, Spanish or Italian Studies

The Department of French, Italian and Spanish offers instruction in the Fields of French, Italian and Spanish together with courses bearing the title Romance Studies which do not at present constitute a Major Field of study.

All mandatory courses will normally be offered each year. Other courses may be offered in alternate years.

French, Italian and Spanish-speaking students or students with more than matriculation in these languages (including graduates of a bilingual or immersion program) must consult the Department to be placed in a course corresponding to their ability. Native speakers are not eligible to take language courses by special assessment or to receive advanced credit for them.

Noting that the advancement of knowledge and understanding is a global enterprise, the Mission Statement of the University of Calgary strongly advocates international contacts among staff and students. In this context, the Department of French, Italian and Spanish encourages its students to benefit from the advantages of studying off-campus, wherever one of the languages with which it deals is spoken. Detailed information on courses and programs in French (in Quebec or elsewhere), Italian and Spanish is available from the departmental secretariat and Centre for International Students and Study Abroad.

Students planning to study off-campus must obtain a letter of permission from their faculty. They are strongly advised to consult the Department of French, Italian and Spanish beforehand to discuss details concerning course selection and transfer of credit.
