Studying a foreign language is a way to prepare yourself professionally, to expand your literary and cultural horizons, and to equip yourself for a constantly changing global market. Study of a foreign language at the undergraduate level is excellent preparation for further graduate study in the humanities, in business, and in law; it adds highly desirable competence for those planning to enter teaching; it is an asset to those seeking careers in foreign affairs, international trade and banking, medecine, health care, and public service.
