The University of Lausanne is a higher teaching and research institution composed of
seven faculties. UNIL is focused on several academic disciplines, especially
Medicine, Life Sciences, Geosciences, Environment, Business, Humanities and Social
Sciences. An emphasis is placed on an interdisciplinary approach, with close
cooperation between students, teaching staff, and professors.
The main campus is located on the shores of the Lake Geneva, in the heart of the
French-speaking region of Switzerland, in a beautiful green landscape with splendid
views of the Alps.
The School of French as a Foreign Language (www.unil.ch/fle) offers, during the
academic year, courses in French language, literature and civilization, as well as
training in language teaching. As a minimum requirement, your French language
skills must be good enough to allow you to take part in everyday conversation and to
understand and write a variety of simple texts.
As the university is located in the French-speaking region of Switzerland, the majority
of the courses are taught in French. Certain courses at Post-graduate or Masters level
are taught partially or entirely in English.
