French Studies

CSB+SJU offers three courses in the study of the French Language.

The French Studies program at CSB/SJU offers a wide range of opportunities to encounter and engage with Francophone culture, including film screenings, poetry and music events, and a study abroad program in Montpellier. We are also proud to have a chapter of the National French Honor Society, Pi Delta Phi.
