法语学习的MAT课程是为已经教法语的个人设计的。候选人是根据法文研究的正式背景录取的。通常仅在学生在罗格斯大学夏季世界语言学院完成一个暑期课程（至少两门三学分课程）后，才考虑申请MAT计划。这些WLI课程可以应用于MAT学位。无论是否获得MAT学位，这些课程学分都可能会用于满足专业继续教育，认证或重新认证或转移到另一个课程的要求。适当的课程主要在夏季提供，任何希望在常规学年修读MAT学位课程的学生（无论是研究生还是本科生）都可以在研究生院主任的允许下进行。
The M.A.T. program in French Studies is designed for individuals already teaching French. A candidate is admitted on the basis of formal background in French studies. An application for the M.A.T. program is normally considered only after the student has completed one summer of course work (a minimum of two three-credit courses) in the Rutgers? summer World Languages Institute. These WLI courses can be applied toward the M.A.T. degree. Regardless of admission to the M.A.T. degree, these course credits may potentially be used to meet requirements for professional continuing education, certification or re-certification, or transfer to another program. Appropriate courses are offered primarily in the summer, any student wishing to take courses toward the M.A.T. degree during the regular academic year (whether graduate or undergraduate) may do so with the permission of the Graduate Director.
