Students may take part in a faculty-led course in Paris with Whittier College professors or opt to study abroad for a summer, a semester, or throughout their entire junior year, taking classes in French language, art history, and history.
For students who are more proficient in the French language, there is the possibility of internships (in art galleries, for instance), while simultaneously taking classes in history, literature and culture at College de Sorbonne (Sorbonne University).
