Overview
The Business Semester in Paris is designed for students who are studying both French and business at their home institution. The objective is for students to develop their French language skills in conjunction with learning how business is conducted in an international environment.
The University of Paris IV (often known as the Sorbonne) was founded in 1253 and is one of the oldest and most prestigious universities in the world and probably the best-known academic French language program in the world. This program combines extensive French language coursework with an exclusive custom course at the Sorbonne focused on business in France and business French.
Paris is one of the most beautiful and sophisticated cities in the world, full of remarkable sights, architecture, art and culture. The course is supplemented by site visits to leading French companies in Paris and in Sophia Antipolis, the Silicon Valley of France.
