Foreign Languages/ASL
Thanks to technology, every corner of the globe is becoming easier to access. Because of this, learning a foreign language is becoming more fundamental and more of an asset in today's society.
We offer courses in Arabic, French, Italian, Spanish, and Russian. You will develop the five basic skills of learning a language: speaking, listening, reading, writing and cultural awareness through current events, literature and visual arts, cultural history, field trips and campus and community international events. You will learn the skills to communicate effectively in another language in a variety of settings.
Knowing other languages opens your world perspective as you are introduced to new cultural experiences. It can also open the door to new career opportunities, as knowledge of another language is highly desirable or even required for many positions, such as working in foreign service or a consular position, international business such as trade and commerce, international law, translating and interpreting, tourism, and overseas teaching to name a few.
Learning another language is also important if you are going to transfer to a 4-year college or university as it is typically a requirement.
