The Foundation French course is offered to the Arts and Sciences Departements for four semesters and for the Management Studies Departments it is offered for two semesters.

Since 2008-09, the Department offers a Non-Major Elective Paper titled “Fundamentals of French” under Part IV for second language Tamil students.

Between 2011 and 2015 French for DELF was offered as a skill based course for 2nd UG students which encouraged them to take up the DELF examination at Alliance Française of Madras.

The Department also collaborates with PG departments offering French as a soft skill paper.

Now the curriculum has been reframed in such a way that the students receive all the skills required to take up the international certification exam.

ABOUT US

About the Department : 

The Department of French (SS) was started in 1981 in order to provide students with the basic knowledge of a foreign language. 

At first, emphasis was given to develop the written skills of the French language. With the onset of autonomy in 1999, the department started focusing on complete language skills- both oral and written. 

Since 2008-09, the Department offers a Non-Major Elective Paper titled “the Fundamentals of French” under Part IV for second language Tamil students.

Today, the department has a strength of nearly 500 students (both day and evening), under the guidance of 4 staff members.

Between 2011 and 2015 French for DELF was offered as a skill based course for 2nd UG students. Students are encouraged to take up the DELF examination. 

The Department also collaborates with PG departments offering French as a soft skill paper.

Now the curriculum has been reframed in such a way that the students receive all the skills required to take up the international certification exam.
