Guadeloupe Study Abroad Program

The Department of Foreign Languages  will coordinate a study program in Guadeloupe in Summer 2008 for interested advanced undergraduate and graduate students at the Media Langues Institute. Classes will be offered in French during the mornings, and there will be available numerous excursions around the island in the afternoons and evenings, including sites, markets, festivals. Students will live with families and have opportunities for many meaningful contacts. Dr. Anne-Marie Moscatelli, amoscatelli@wcupa.edu, is coordinating the program for the department. She will offer a course on campus May 27-June 12 on Antillean culture, FRE 311-80 and FRE 520-80. Students will enroll directly at the Media Langues Institute in Guadeloupe for 2, 4, or 6 week sessions, for 3 transfer credits for each two weeks of work.
