The Francophone Resource Center (FRC) develops and conducts programs, workshops, conferences, seminars and other activities for a wide range of audiences, Francophile and Francophone, members of the university communities of Southern California, teachers of French at all levels, and students of French language and cultures.

Housed by USC’s College of Letters, Arts and Sciences, with the support of the Information Division Services, the USC Francophone Resource Center serves as a hub for a diverse set of multidisciplinary activities involving distinguished Francophone writers, scholars, filmmakers, journalists, and scientists.  In sum, its goal is to create new interdisciplinary bridges between local and Francophone institutions.
