Overview

Program Description Today’s workforce is increasingly global, and career opportunities may arise in exciting international locations where a solid understanding of your career field includes proficiency in a second language and its culture. The BS degree in applied modern language and culture is a distinctive, dynamic foreign language degree in which students will study Chinese, Japanese, or Spanish. It prepares them to actively apply their knowledge of language and culture to a technical or professional discipline of their choice, such as science, business, communication, computing and information technology, engineering, the arts, and more. Students will gain proficiency in their chosen language while learning to articulate their technical or professional discipline in that language. Applied modern language and culture is not a traditional foreign language degree. Instead, the major provides advanced study of languages and cultures that most directly apply to the global workplace and the global economy in which students will work. Students choose one of three language tracks—Chinese, Japanese, or Spanish—where they'll immerse themselves in that region’s language and culture. Students learn to speak, understand, read, and write in their chosen language, as well as gain a proficiency in the culture and traditions surrounding the language and geographic region. In addition, students choose a secondary major of study or a minor in a technical or professional discipline, such as computing, information technology, engineering, business, the arts, or the sciences. The major is unique in that it provides an extensive study of a specific language and culture and its direct application to a career field. Students learn how the integration of language skills, cultural awareness, and professional fluency impacts their work in science, computing, communication, engineering, business, the arts, and more.
