increase global and self-awareness
At Ursinus College, students can learn Arabic, Chinese-Mandarin, French, German, Japanese, and Spanish. The Department of Modern Languages aims to increase global and self-awareness, preparing students to become informed international citizens. Majors and minors acquire advanced language skills, a deep understanding of diverse literary and ethnic traditions, and the social contexts they stem from.
Our program emphasizes communicative, analytical, critical, and creative skills, fostering oral and written proficiency alongside cultural, historical, and literary knowledge.
Leave prepared and Ready for any Field
Students engage with the international community through study abroad programs, internships, language tables, and interactions at Musser International House. Graduates have used their language skills in fields like medicine, travel, and education. We offer majors and minors in French, German, and Spanish, with Japanese and Chinese as minors, and Arabic courses fulfilling language requirements.
