The courses on offer

Licences

• Licence de Langue Littérature et Civilisation Etrangères (LLCER - Parcours Asie et Pacifique) de chinois
  Attention : Enrolling in the first year of the Chinese bachelor's degree requires a solid foundation in the language and is not for absolute beginners, or even false beginners. If you've never studied Chinese before, take a look at the "Initiation diplomas" page. You can test your level yourself with the online placement test. You can refer to the Method of Chinese, first level (l'Asiathèque), the course material for the introductory year, to assess more accurately the language skills required at the start of L1.
  This test is not, however, necessary for baccalaureate holders from general streams who have taken Chinese LV1 or LV2 and obtained a mark equal to or above 14 in the baccalauréat.
