The French Preparatory Program for the French Political Science and International Relations Department is an intensive and interdisciplinary preparatory program designed to ensure that students begin their undergraduate studies with a strong linguistic and academic foundation. The program approaches French not only as a tool for communication but also as a language for thinking and analysis in the fields of diplomacy, political science, and global affairs.
Established in 1996 with the founding of Yeditepe University, the French Preparatory Program has been training students for the French Political Science and International Relations Department with effective language instruction ever since. This language, which students will use throughout their social and professional lives, is taught by expert faculty members employing the most effective and up-to-date methods. The program aims to develop students’ language skills in an integrated manner. Upon successful completion of the program, students are expected to achieve B2-level proficiency according to the CEFR, enabling them to follow departmental courses, participate in discussions, and understand and interpret academic texts effectively.
