An NTU Student Leverages French to Embark on a Career in the Diplomatic World!
Erica HO Li Vun, a recent NTU graduate with a Bachelor of Social Sciences in Public Policy and Global Affairs, and minors in Modern Languages (French) and Entrepreneurship, has turned her passion for French into a career advantage.
Inspired by the nuanced French terms she encountered in her major, she began studying the language and, in December 2022, immersed herself in French culture through NTU’s Winter Language Immersion Programme in Besançon at CLA Besançon - Université de Franche Comté
After completing her studies at NTU, she earned her DELF B1 international certification in French, adding valuable credentials to her resume.
Now, she is building on her language skills and career as an Executive Assistant at the Institut Français de Singapour, Campus France, Ambassade de France à Singapour, with aspirations to pursue a Master’s in Diplomacy and International Affairs in France.
NTU French Student Secures Scholarship to Pursue Master’s Degree in France!
Pursuing a Master’s in Embedded Systems in the beautiful "pink" city of Toulouse, France, Sherene Sohail is a proud recipient of the Campus France Master's Excellence Scholarship. Her journey began at the Centre for Modern Languages, School of Humanities, at NTU, where she took French classes and discovered this scholarship opportunity through an ad from Campus France, Ambassade de France à Singapour, relayed by the French Department.
With the personal guidance of Campus France in Singapore, Sherene is thriving in a vibrant, multicultural engineering landscape that challenges her academically and enriches her experience with hands-on projects and connections with peers from around the globe.
She has seamlessly adapted to French culture and daily life thanks to her previous involvement in CML and French language classes.
NTU French Student Awarded a Scholarship by the French Embassy in Singapore!
After learning about the French+Science program from a mass email sent by the French coordinator at Nanyang Technological University Singapore, Tam Xinhui seized the opportunity to explore her passion for Sea technology while enhancing her French by attending the program Science and Technology of the Sea at CIEL Bretagne.
Her journey has been both professionally and personally enriching. As the only Singaporean in her program, she developed invaluable communication and teamwork skills while collaborating with diverse peers who became lifelong friends. Through visits to various businesses and NGOs, Tam witnessed innovation in action—exploring fields from marine biology to skincare production and oil spill management. Her excursions to stunning sites like Mont Saint Michel further enriched her experience.
This adventure deepened her cultural curiosity and solidified her desire to return to France for further studies or work. Now, as she thrives in the satellite office of a European company, Tam recognizes how this program has prepared her for a global career.
The Centre for Applied Linguistics (CLA) of @fc_univ has been pleased to welcome nineteen students from the prestigious Nanyang Technological University (NTU) for a month. Since July 8th, they have been participating in intensive French courses and exploring French culture through educational outings and a diverse programme of cultural activities.
The partnership between NTU and CLA, established in 2019, has already enabled 147 NTU students to experience the French language and culture in an immersive environment.
