Mission
The Department of Languages, Literatures and Cultures prepares students to become engaged and informed citizens who can think critically, communicate effectively in a language other than English, and participate fully in today’s global economy. Our courses and extracurricular programming emphasize language as a window to human understanding and challenge students to improve their interpersonal and problem-solving skills; use language in specific professional contexts and situations; gain competency with digital media; and become more confident, adaptable, and comfortable taking risks. We strive to achieve our mission through instruction that is interdisciplinary and experiential; through the production of innovative scholarship; and through engagement with communities both locally and internationally. Our graduates possess skills that are in demand today across a broad range of fields and are ready to navigate the changing landscape of today’s professional world.
