Bachelor of Arts [B.A] [German] From Southern Illinois University

A major in Languages, Cultures, and International Studies with a Specialization in German requires 32 semester hours in courses above the 100-level. The B.A. program meets the objectives of students preparing for employment in language-centered careers or in non-language areas where language proficiency is a supporting factor. Government agencies and businesses with international dealings employ great numbers of individuals, inlcuding scientists, engineers, librarians, and social workers, whose primary skills are basically non-linguistic, but who can enhance their employment and career possibilities with appropriate training in foreign languages and cultures. Our B.A. program readily accomodates a second major in such fields.
