Learning a world language can help prepare students to communicate more effectively in today’s global society. At Schoolcraft College, we offer courses in elementary and intermediate:
- Arabic
- Chinese
- French
- German
- Italian
- Spanish
Being multilingual opens up many career opportunities abroad as well as qualifies students for a variety of language-related jobs, including educators, interpreters, international relations, or linguistics.
Students interested in studying world languages should talk to their Academic Advisor about transfer guides and articulation agreements with Schoolcraft College. Students interested in studying a world language at a 4-year university may be interested in completing the Associate of Arts or Associate of General Studies degree at Schoolcraft College.
