Program Description


The Department of Modern Languages is committed, as ever, to providing a fresh and varied program of study, offering some stimulating courses centered upon such subjects as humor, film, business, poetry, law enforcement, and other aspects of the cultures that we study through language. The members of the faculty take pride in their work as teachers and mentors, and we look forward to each and every new incoming student!

No course of study in modern languages is complete without the opportunity to study or spend time abroad. Of course not everyone can study abroad, but we encourage all who can to do so. The university has a variety of foreign study programs in, among others, Brazil, Chile, China, Costa Rica, France, Germany, Japan, Spain, and several other countries; these can differ in length of time (from two or three weeks to a full year) and some can be more subject specific. Prospective and current students can get a good overview of what is available by looking at the University Center for International Education website.
