The Modern Foreign Languages Department cordially welcomes you to Western Carolina University and to the department that offers you access to the world.
Knowing and understanding other languages and cultures can open many doors to you, both professionally and personally. We hope you take advantage of the opportunity to study Cherokee, Chinese, French, German, Japanese or Spanish with us. We offer majors in Spanish and German, minors in Spanish, German, and Japanese, and a Second Academic Concentration in Spanish. We also encourage you to consider one of the many study abroad programs available to WCU students.
Again, welcome to our department and to Western.
Santiago García-Castañón, Ph.D.
