More information on language proficiency levels

Acquire the label

There are two ways to validate your level of foreign language proficiency:

1. Obtain language certification (CLES B2, CLES C1, TOEFL, BULATS, DELE, TELC – list non-exhaustive) Warning, the OLS and eLAO tests are not certifications.

2. With a foreign language diploma (Foreign and Regional Languages, Literatures and Civilisations; Applied Foreign Languages; Languages and Societies): a bachelor’s degree achieves at least level B2, while a master’s or doctorate are worth at least level C1.

The Language Centre (CRL) of the University of Lille can help you obtain various types of language certifications.

To acquire the label, you must prove that you have spent time abroad. This could be a study trip, traineeship or other mobility period. The University of Lille’s international mobility department can offer you support in preparing your international mobility project (exchange programmes, funding). The occupational integration office (BAIP) at the University of Lille can offer advice on how to find a traineeship abroad. For international students, studies or traineeships completed in their home country are not eligible.

The curriculum for some courses at the University of Lille includes intercultural modules that can be used to obtain the international label, check on our course list. To validate these, you must have achieved a pass grade for the relevant teaching component. If you have never taken these modules, we invite you to take part in sessions held each year. Courses are conducted in English. These modules are a good way to prepare for your overseas mobility.
