Department of World Languages & Cultures
Course Offerings:
The study of world languages
and cultures leads to an understanding of the complex relationship between
cultural production (for example, literature, film, and music) and the social,
economic and political forces that frame this production over time.
The language and critical
thinking skills you develop through written and oral exposition, research, and
service learning will enhance your career opportunities in today's global
society and provide the basis for a lifetime exploration of your own and others'
cultures and worldviews.
