Why
Study Foreign Languages, Literatures, and Cultures?
Students planning on using language as a primary skill in
foreign language teaching, interpreting, and translating
will pursue studies in this area. These studies are also for
students who want to use language as an auxiliary skill.
Wider employment opportunities are available for those who
combine knowledge of a foreign language with majors such as:
anthropology, broadcast and cinematic arts, business and
administration, counselor education, journalism, library
science, political science, social work, travel, tourism,
and hospitality. Foreign languages should also be considered
by students who plan on attending graduate or professional
schools, those wishing to gain a greater understanding of
their cultural heritage, and those who want to enrich their
leisure time pursuits.

Admission, Retention, and Termination Standards
These standards apply to all majors and minors offered in
this department.
In order to sign a major or minor, a student must first
meet with an advisor. The advisors for the languages
are listed above.
Majors
and Minors: The
department offers majors and minors in French, German, and
Spanish. The sequences 101 - 102 - 201 - 202 provide the
basis for all advanced study in French, German and Spanish.
In Spanish, 214 is added to this basis. Without previous
language experience, prospective majors and minors begin
with 101. Students who have previously studied a foreign language must
take the placement test. They are placed higher in the
sequence based on previously attained skills in the language.
Placement exams are available in French, German and Spanish.
For placement questions about other languages, contact the
department.
Notes:
All foreign language majors are required to take nine hours of
language at the 300 level or above on campus.
One course at the 200 level and one course at the 300 level
or 400 level taken on a CR/NC basis may be counted toward a
major or minor.
CLEP: The department accepts up to four credit hours
of CLEP credit per language.
Advanced Placement: Credit is given for a score of
three or above after a departmental review of each case and
an interview with the student.
International
Baccalaureate: Credit is given for a score of three
or above after a departmental review of each case and an
interview with the student.
Transfer Students
majoring in a foreign language must earn at least nine
credit hours in their major at CMU; those minoring must earn
at least six credit hours in their minor at CMU. These hours
must be taken on campus.
Retroactive Credit:
Students who enroll in an entry level course (102, 201,
202), or a course beyond 202 (FRN 315 or 316, GER 311 or
312, or SPN 214 or 331), and receive a B (3.0) or better are
eligible for up to 8 hours of retroactive credit. To
qualify, students must be enrolled at the level determined
by their score on the placement test, or at a higher level.
Earned credits count toward the University Program, but
retroactive credits do not.
B.S. in Ed. degree, Elementary or Secondary Provisional
Certification, or Elementary or
Secondary Provisional Certification with Emotional or
Cognitive Impairment Endorsement:
B.S. in Ed. degree options require students to pass all
portions of the
proficiency exam in each language before taking any foreign
language methods courses (411, 412, 421). Majors and minors will be
admitted to student teaching in foreign language only if

412 and 421 are not courses in language studies and are not
considered in this GPA.
