Our Mission

Beyond the Classroom

The Department of Modern Languages offers numerous opportunities for students in language programs to study abroad, building on what they learn in the classroom with a greater understanding of and appreciation for the way speakers use the language in their daily lives.

Students can spend a semester in the Chinese cities of Shanghai, Hong Kong, and Qingdao. 他们也可以利用夏天 Magellan projects 或者申请富布赖特项目到台湾任教. Finally, there are opportunities to conduct field research in China paid for by the 4-year implementation of a Luce Foundation grant.
