Italian
Learn Italian, called "the best composed language in terms of fluency and smoothness." Gain fluency in language use, both oral and written.
Which Italian language course should I take?
Students with no background in the language may enroll themselves into the relevant introductory course.
Students who have some background in Italian should contact the course instructor for a placement interview if they are enrolling in an Italian course for the first time.
Students who have transferred from a college or a university and took Italian in their prior institution should take the next level course.
* We reserve the right to move students to more proficiency-appropriate courses or to unenroll students when there is no appropriate course for them.
Placement interviews
Students who are unsure about their level or background in Italian should attend a placement interview with the course instructor before they register for courses. Contact information is noted in the course outlines each semester.
Students are expected to provide true information about their language background and language learning experiences to the best of their knowledge. Concealing your knowledge of the language and/or providing false information are considered academic dishonesty and can be recorded on the your academic record. For more information, read SFU's academic integrity page.
