Aix-en-Provence Academic Calendar

Join IAU for a semester, academic year, or summer in Aix-en-Provence, France. Studying abroad in the south of France offers the opportunity to enroll in site-specific courses taught in English or French, live with a French host, participate in field studies and study tours, hold an internship, or volunteer! 

A note to students: IAU advises that students do not make any travel arrangements prior to the first week of classes. Field studies and course excursions can be scheduled during weekends and breaks, so IAU recommends not purchasing any tickets or scheduling any travel until after learning of course requirements on-site.

The calendar is subject to change.
