French Program
Study Abroad in Lille
There are numerous study abroad opportunities available to students at the University of Memphis, including summer, semester, and academic year programs, such as the official summer exchange with the Université Catholique de Lille in France, as well as additional options in France and Canada. Qualified students may also benefit from excellent scholarship opportunities. Further information can be found on the University’s study abroad website, and students are encouraged to contact Dr. Denis Grélé ([ddgrele@memphis.edu](mailto:ddgrele@memphis.edu)) for program-specific guidance. Additionally, the French government offers competitive assistantships in France, where selected graduates teach English in French lycées for one year; eligibility requires completion of a degree in French prior to departure. Information about this program is typically shared in late fall, and students may also consult the French Embassy’s Cultural Services website for more details.
