Satellites and intensive French courses

The University of Lausanne offers French courses to its regular students.

These courses are French lessons (language, literature, culture) intended for non French-speaking students.

They are free of charge and their aim is to allow students to organise and systematise the knowledge of French that their life and studies in Lausanne have enabled them to acquire.

They are organised by the School of French as a Foreign Language (EFLE).

The Mutual Teaching in Context programme provides ECTS credits and a Certificate of Qualification in French (CQF). The CQF (levels B1, B2 or C1) of the intensive French courses (Le FIL) of UNIL grants exemption from the French exam.

CQF exams may be taken independently of courses.
