Major
The Department shares in the mission of the College by offering courses at various levels in Chinese, French, German, Italian, Latin and Spanish which meet Cornerstone Program requirements.
The Department has majors in French and Spanish, as well as a major in Foreign Languages which allows students to combine two of the following foreign languages: French, German, Italian and Spanish. The Department also offers minor programs in French, German, Italian Studies and Spanish. Current technology, in the forms of audiovisual media and computer-assisted instruction, provides authentic language models and enhances learning. Moreover, Foreign Language majors are required to spend a semester abroad in an approved program of study or in one of the international internships sponsored by Stonehill College. Goals
- Students will be able to communicate effectively in a foreign language in both oral and written forms.
- Students will appreciate and understand a foreign culture, its values and institutions, including relevant aspects of history, art and geography.
- Students will learn the linguistic, cultural, aesthetic, and critical contributions of foreign literatures.
