Courses in foreign languages provide the basic skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing as well as an introduction to the literature and the culture of the peoples that speak them. The study of a foreign language may lead to a career in teaching or it may provide the student with a valuable supporting skill in many fields, such as business, public service, librarianship, social work, law, journalism, or the health professions. Reading knowledge of a foreign language is a requirement for many graduate degrees
Placement Exam
Students with no previous university-level coursework in Spanish, French or German who wish to continue with the language(s) acquired previously must take the appropriate foreign language placement exam and will be placed accordingly. (Testing Office, Roseman 2003, 262-472-5613) The placement test is given to help the student select the proper course, but departmental advising is still recommended. Native speakers of these foreign languages should speak with the Foreign Language Coordinator regarding placement.
Students of other foreign languages should speak with the course instructor about placement.
Credit for Previous Language Study
The Department of Languages and Literatures grants up to 16 units in French, German, Japanese and Spanish (12 units in Chinese and Arabic) for previous language study or other language experience provided the student earns at least a “B” in a follow-up course at UW-W. Students may enroll in any course except phonetics and the 390 conversation course to receive units for previous language study. (See previous section: Placement Exam). The B grade must be earned in the first eligible course taken at the university level.
