Meet the challenges of this diverse world, think critically and communicate effectively in the 21st century.
Learn to understand other cultures, become more marketable to prospective employers, and improve your brain power. There are many reasons to learn another language, but in a world that is more interconnected than ever, proficiency in multiple languages is a remarkably valuable tool.
We offer six language options— Spanish, Chinese, Japanese, Greek and Latin.
Visit our Spanish site for more information about Spanish courses, faculty and opportunities, including Monmouth in Mérida, a full-semester experience in Mérida, Mexico.
Taking Chinese allows students to expand their intellectual horizon and learn about an ancient culture that has more than 3,000 years of written history. Modern China is the world’s second-largest economy, so studying Chinese is a great option for students in economics, business, history, communication studies and political science.
Japan is a small country, with only 1.62 percent of the world population. Yet it is the world’s third-largest economy as measured by GDP. Its art and culture have captured the imagination of the world, and its manufacturing process (the “Kaizan” process perfect by Toyota Motor Corp.) is emulated by many U.S. manufacturing companies.
