French
Minor in French
The French Minor (20 credits) provides students with the basic lexical and grammatical foundations for reading, writing, speaking, and understanding the spoken word in French. It also incorporates the study of culture in the francophone world. Francophone literature is also introduced at the upper division level. Students have the opportunity to travel and study abroad for a summer or a semester.
The goals of the French program are (a) to provide a quality language-learning experience so that the student is capable of communicating with native speakers and (b) to provide a body of cultural knowledge so that the student is able to relate cross-culturally to the native speaker. The French program at Evangel is designed to take the student from the novice to the lower-advanced level. A student who has studied French in high school may enter the program at a higher level of instruction in college and therefore earn the Concentration or Minor more quickly. Proficiency in French, rather than credit hours earned, determines a student’s placement. Proficiency is evaluated by an examination and an interview. Summer and regular-semester study-abroad opportunities reinforce the classroom experience, making French language and culture come alive.
Each of Evangel's academic programs is made up of a set of core curriculum, program requirements and electives. The courses listed below are just a small sample of courses that might be taken as a part of this specific program.

NOTE: A minor is a secondary field of interest that is meant to complement your academic major. While your major is chosen for your intended career choice, your minor may be something you pursue for your personal interest or to augment your major.
