Mississippi College - Foreign Languages Program
The basic goals of the Department of Foreign Languages are:
To acquaint non-language majors with a culture, language and literature other than their own
To provide language majors with the skills and knowledge necessary for effective communication in the foreign language
And to provide adequate training for those who plan to continue their language study in graduate school and for those who plan to enter professional fields that require the mastery of a foreign language
Those who continue in the same language they studied in high school should consult with the instructor in that language before registration in order to determine their placement. In general, one year of high school work is considered equivalent to one semester of university work. Students who have taken two years or more of a foreign language in high school may take the CLEP test for that language. Depending on the test score, up to 12 semester hours of university credit may be obtained. This proficiency examination must be taken before receiving upper level university credit in that language.
Most graduate schools require their students to have a working knowledge (12 semester hours or the equivalent) of one foreign language for the master s degree or two for the doctorate. Most seminaries require that their candidates for the degree of Doctor of Theology have a working knowledge of two foreign languages in addition to Greek and Hebrew. The catalog of the graduate school or seminary that one expects to attend should be consulted for specific requirements.
