About the Program
The Department of Modern Languages, Linguistics, and Intercultural Communication (MLL) offers students an innovative, multi-disciplinary program with a triple focus: language, literature and society. Courses are offered in Chinese, French, German, Hebrew, Japanese, Russian and Spanish, as well as linguistics and intercultural communication. Students can major in French, German, Russian, Spanish, a combination of any two of these languages, language and cultural studies or applied linguistics.
French students participate with students of other languages in a common core of three courses that stress linguistic and cultural analysis. Therefore, aside from acquiring proficiency in French language and knowledge of the cultures of France and the French-speaking world, they also learn about the fascinating dynamics of languages and cultures in general.
The MLL department emphasizes the importance of living and studying abroad. MLL faculty advise French, German and Russian students on programs abroad.
The department has an active council of majors, a linguistics club and several language clubs. Internships and community service projects are available. The faculty encourages and supports undergraduate participation in faculty research.
MLL graduates successfully pursue careers in law, medicine, education, social work, government and international business.
