What colleges have good foreign language programs?
Oct 16, 2008 by n.k.t.20 | Posted in Languages
One of my biggest interests for a employment is in the foreign language department, as I am fascinated by other languages. Although I don't know quite yet what career exactly to pursue, I be to major in a foreign language (such as Chinese, Arabic, Japanese, Russian, but not all of course) and I catch on to languages very quickly, as I have done German in tipsy school and found myself extremely successful, and I taught myself some Finnish with ease. What American colleges/universities have good unfamiliar language programs with a good reputation? I'm also interested in a larger campus (not huge, but not small) and a college with an overall notorious.
Cal, Stanford, Georgetown, UCLA, USC, and Washington all have pronounced language programs...as do many other schools. If you are looking for a career in the Foreign Service Corps, you can't do better than Georgetown. One of the least well known programs is at Thunderbird in AZ...they have the subdue International Business MBA going...and they require fluency in two langages other than English for graduation.

I'm very interested in Russian as a language and Russian history. How would you suggest I learn more?

I'll be succeeding to college next year and taking a language and history class, but if anyone knows any other opportunities to learn Russian faster (I understand the Rosetta Stone programs are good) and especially to visit Russia, please let me know. Are there any summer camps where I could labour, or internships for Americans? I won't begin learning the language until January, so I certainly won't be that good.
Well, living in Russia is rather cheap (unless you go to Moscow). If you have some money saved, it is definitely possible to just come over as a sightseer for a few weeks and hire a local english-language student as a tutor. You should also plan on studying a semester in foreign lands. It is not possible for non-Russians to work in summer camps or do internships in Russia. (Russians do not have summer camps as the Americans do.) But you could look at Au-Team up work. There are bound to be rich Russians looking for native speakers of English to watch their kids.
@Ernie: I use both Russian and Arabic apart from English and German (my native language), hasn't landed me a job yet. So I suggest learning whichever language you dig, because without real passion for and a zeal to master it you will get nowhere when learning another language.
