Mission

Foreign languages are an essential component of the great tradition of teaching and learning in the liberal arts.  By teaching students to communicate in other languages, allowing them to gain knowledge and an understanding of other cultures, helping them to make connections with other disciplines, providing them with insight into the nature of language and culture and requiring them to participate in multilingual communities both at home and abroad, the programs in the Department of Foreign Languages play a critical role in preparing students for the personal and professional challenges of a multicultural society and a global marketplace.
