Overview

Multiculturalism has never been more important in how we conduct ourselves inside and outside the workplace. Employers are increasingly seeking candidates who can successfully interact with people of other cultures. This is especially true when you choose such fields as criminal justice or marketing.

What are Modern Languages degrees used for out in the real world? This is a question we hear from parents and students and what drove us to develop this Modern Language Spanish degree, French degree or German degree option. The Professional Applications option shows you how studying German, Spanish or French can be used along your career path in one of the following fields:

Criminal Justice concentration

Marketing concentration
