The Destination

If you’re looking to spend time in one of the world’s most prominent cultural, finance, and commerce centers, look no further than Paris. A top tourist destination, the capital of France, and the country’s most populous city, Paris offers some of the greatest sites in the world: the Arc de Triomphe, the Château de Versailles, the Louvre, and the Eiffel Tower, just to name a few.

The city boasts a modern, vibrant, and diverse culture that is turned toward the 21st century. Its peaceful parks, lively nightlife, and open-air markets with fresh food and flowers are scattered around residential areas, and a bakery is never more than a short walk away. You can’t miss Paris’ iconic stone Haussmann buildings lining its bustling boulevards, which contrast with the impressive modern glass and steel structures situated in La Défense, Paris’ financial district. From neighborhood to neighborhood, there is much to see along Paris’ winding cobble-lined streets.

CIEE wants all our students to feel welcomed, supported, and empowered to succeed while studying abroad. Local CIEE staff have provided details about conditions and cultural attitudes that students with specific identities might encounter in Paris.

Academics

Students will have the opportunity to take a unique mix of courses at CIEE Paris and at CIEE’s renowned partner institution, Institut Catholique de Paris (ICP). Students with advanced French language skills (minimum of four semesters of college-level French or equivalent) can enroll in local university courses in French at ICP, in addition to classes at CIEE Paris. Course topics may include language, politics, photography, cuisine, or sustainability initiatives.

Courses are taught in English or French by esteemed faculty. Attendance in class is mandatory. Most students will take one course at the local university. More advanced students, with the permission of CIEE Paris faculty and staff, may take additional elective courses.   
Strategically located in the historic heart of Paris, ICP offers a wealth of amenities where the old meets the new. Founded in 1875, ICP allows its students to have a rich and historic filled experience while enjoying the modernity of a 21st-century campus. ICP teaches more than 10,000 students; one third of which are international students. 

Official host institution’s fall exams take place in January, and the official host institution’s spring exams take place in May/June. However, exams in early December and early May will be possible, and students can register for courses once the professors have confirmed they will be able to take early exams (they should be confirmed on an individual basis with the professor at the start of the regular semester session) during the add/drop period. 

While the host institution instructs faculty to allow for early exams with single-semester international students across the board, as a precaution, these early exams should be confirmed on an individual basis with the professor at the start of the regular semester session, during the add/drop period. It is up to the discretion of each professor to offer exams before the start of the official examination periods. Professors cannot be forced to offer early exams so housing will be covered until exams are complete; students must remain on-site until assessment is complete. 

GPA

  • Up to three courses at Institut Catholique de Paris (ICP).
    • ICP courses in English (typically 2.5 U.S. credits each) are offered by two departments: The Faculty of Social Sciences, Economics, and Law, and the Faculty of Liberal Art. ICP courses in French (typically 1 to 2.5 U.S. credits each) are offered by the Faculty of Social Sciences, Economics, and Law, the Faculty of Liberal Arts, the Faculty of Letters, the Faculty of Theology, and the Faculty of Philosophy.

Individual courses may have additional prerequisites; for CIEE courses, these are listed in the syllabi below. Students are responsible for having their own course approval conversations with their advisors.

Academic Culture

CIEE courses are designed to follow U.S. academic culture and standards. The class schedule typically features a combination of traditional lectures and discussions with co-curricular excursions and activities. Heavy emphasis is placed on student participation.

French university courses are often more formal and consist of lectures with little class participation. Great importance is placed on oral presentations and written essays, so strong French speaking and writing skills are important. Professors also expect students to work independently and determine their own study and reading schedules.

Class Format

Courses taught at CIEE Paris are typically for CIEE students only. Classes are scheduled Monday-Thursday. Attendance is mandatory both for classes and required co-curricular excursions. 

Grading

French university grades are based on a combination of midterms, final examinations, research papers, and oral presentations, and are on the French grading scale of 0-20, which CIEE then converts into recommended U.S. letter grade equivalents.

The U.S. grading scale of A-F is used for CIEE classes. Students are graded on the basis of class participation, homework, project work, presentations, and midterm and final examinations. Learning outcomes assessment is continuous through personal reflections, evaluation feedback, self-assessment, and requirements as set out in course syllabi. 

Individual courses may have additional prerequisites; for CIEE courses, these are listed in the syllabi below. Students are responsible for having their own course approval conversations with their advisors.

Language of Instruction

There are no specific language requirements for this program.
