DEPARTMENT PROFILE

 

The Department of Foreign Languages at Georgia Southern University
is comprised of twenty-two faculty in Arabic, Chinese, French, German, Latin, and Spanish.
Below is photograph from December2004.

Faculty scholarship has a high profile, with many articles, books, and conference presentations every year. Publications have appeared in journals such as Hispania, The Afro-Hispanic Review, The French Literature Series, and Foreign Language Annals. Faculty are regular presenters at ACTFL, SCOLT, FLAG, and other professional meetings.

We offer both the Bachelor or Arts (B.A.) degree (major) as well as a minor in French, German, and Spanish. Also available for students studying these three languages are a Bachelor of Science in Education (B.S.Ed.) and a Master of Education (M.Ed.), which are both offered in conjunction with the College of Education. The Department of Foreign Languages is proud to announce the new M.A. in Spanish, beginning in 2005.  In addition to French, German, and Spanish, Latin classes are offered regularly.

Foreign language proficiency is stressed. Classes are kept small in order to enable greater student participation and to provide constant reinforcement of language skills in listening, speaking, reading, and writing. As much as possible, all classes are taught in the foreign language, beginning with the first course. Most importantly, the vast majority of all classes (including the beginning level) are taught by professors to insure a high quality of instruction throughout.
