The Foreign Language Program seeks to develop proficiency in listening, speaking, reading and writing a second language, and to introduce the student to the literature and civilization of another country in order to broaden his/her perspective and increase his/her understanding and sensitivity of a foreign culture. Graduates may enter careers in international business, education, the tourism and hospitality industries, and government service.

For students interested in completing a foreign-language minor within a broader international business preparation, see the Business Administration section.

PLEASE NOTE: Students interested in meeting the Minnesota professional teaching licensure requirements should contact an advisor in the SMSU Education Department.
