This undergraduate program leads to an Honours Bachelor of Arts in Second Language Teaching (Teaching French as a Second Language), offered jointly by the University of Ottawa's Faculty of Education and Faculty of Arts through the Official Languages and Bilingualism Institute (OLBI); the university describes these programs as the only ones of their kind in Canada. The multidisciplinary curriculum covers theories of language acquisition, second-language learning and teaching, and the interrelationships between language, culture and society. Graduates who meet the Faculty of Education's admission requirements are eligible for a limited number of reserved places in the university's Teacher Education (BEd) program, and several graduate program options are also available. The 120-unit curriculum is organized into basic-skills, compulsory, optional and elective course units, completed over four years of full-time study. The program is offered in English and in French.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Ontario secondary-school applicants need English 4U (ENG4U) or Français 4U (FRA4U) as the only subject prerequisite; no other Grade 12 course is required. The published minimum admission average is 75%, calculated from the applicant's top six 4U/4M/DU grades including the language prerequisite. This line covers the great majority of Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Social Sciences programs at the University of Ottawa, including single-subject majors, Honours variants, joint-honours combinations of two Arts or Social Sciences disciplines, and the general Interdisciplinary Studies (BA/BSocSc) credentials. Some programs in this group carry an additional stream (French Immersion, Co-op, or an In-Depth Experiential Learning Stream) that does not change the academic admission line. Meeting the minimum average does not guarantee admission where a program is oversubscribed. Applicants completing Environmental Studies without Biology 4U are advised to take a replacement course in first year.
