Consider a Language Minor You are already on your way!

 Another language enables you to work, live and travel in another country.  Many career choices are only open to you if you have another language.  For many graduate programs, a second language is required. "Studying languages and linguistics is one of the most rewarding experiences here at Queen’s." Andrea and Alanna, DSC Chairs

 The study of languages unlocks new worlds of literature and culture.  Learning a language sparks your creativity! Finish what you started! A minor in a language complements any major and will stand out on your transcript. It will make you competitive internationally, since students outside of North America usually have more than one language.

Minors are available in: German Studies Hispanic Studies Italian Indigenous Studies Spanish and Latin American Studies World Language Studies Linguistics  Find detailed descriptions for all Plans on the LLCU website under “Academics.”
