Program Description
Live and study in a city voted by the French as “the most desired French town to live in.” Aix-en-Provence is a quaint student-centered city that boasts all the amenities of a larger city, while still retaining its charm and history. Stunning natural scenery, winding streets lined with cafes and boutiques, and enough festivals, pubs, concerts, and theaters to keep residents busy year-round, it's easy to see what makes this eclectic student hub in the south of France the ideal setting. Study abroad with CEA in Aix and hone your French language skills, ignite your inner artist, gain resume-boosting experience, make new friends, and create unforgettable memories!
Available programs include:
• French Language & Culture
• Intensive French Language
• Liberal Arts
• Studio Art
You’ll study alongside French and other international students at our partner institution, Aix-Marseille University (IAU) and IAU College, where you’ll immerse in the French culture both in and out of the classroom. You’ll have opportunities to take full advantage of your surroundings through hands-on cultural activities like visiting a local farm and taking in the region’s famous lavender fields, and through excursions to sites such as Arles, Carmargue and the seaside town of Cassis. Whatever Aix program you choose, there are always CEA internships, volunteer and service learning opportunities to further enrich your experience.
