The philosophy of the foreign language programs at UW Oshkosh is in full congruence with the College of Letters and Science's mission to enhance the skills of communication and critical thinking.
Our programs contribute to the intellectual, social and emotional growth of our students, so they will attain fulfillment as individuals and as members of society. These programs also help students meet the challenges of today's world and become better prepared to meet those future challenges.
By learning a language other than their own and by gaining insight into another culture, students gain insight into their own language and culture. For our students, who will live their lives in a world of increasing global interdependence, this insight can be critical to their personal professional fulfillment. Additionally, learning a foreign language benefits our students by improving their learning overall as they make connections across the curriculum with other subjects.
The process of learning one foreign language also facilitates learning additional foreign languages. Foreign language programs help students become tolerant, open-minded citizens and sensitive knowledgeable people, who understand linguistic and cultural diversity, and can adapt to change as a member of the global society.
