The Department of Languages and Cultures offers courses in second or foreign languages from basic to advanced levels. In addition to languages, the Department has developed several programs in the literatures and cultures of the Spanish- and French-speaking worlds.

The Department also offers a graduate program in Bilingual/ESL. In conjunction with the College of Education, the Program offers courses toward an M.Ed. in education, and endorsements in bilingual/bicultural education and English as a Second Language.

The Department is the home base of the Spanish and French Clubs which group students majoring in Spanish, French and Francophone Studies as well as those interested in the Hispanic cultures. The Spanish and French Club help to plan academic, cultural, and social activities. Several Latino fraternities, sororities, and honor societies are also associated with the Department.
