The world is increasingly becoming a global village, where cross-cultural communication is dependent upon the ability to speak other languages. Those who master a second language expand their career options, are more competitive in the job market, and are better equipped to respond to the Biblical command to love our neighbors as ourselves.

At Dordt College, you’ll find the foreign language faculty teaches more than language skills: they’ll also enhance your cultural understanding, your appreciation of diversity, your global perspective, and help you interact more effectively with people of different backgrounds. These skills will benefit you in any career you choose following graduation.
