Brussels, as an international capital and for the most part French-speaking, is a test bed for a whole range of different approaches to language phenomena. Becoming utterly proficient in French is a challenge met up to by this MA. It offers students the opportunity to take their learning up to an intermediate or advanced level, dependent on their previous knowledge.
