The Major

Objectives:
The language major is designed to enable the student to perfect his fluency in the language and to acquire an in-depth knowledge of the civilization and literature which are manifestations of that language.

The major is a flexible one and has been shown to be excellent preparation for students desirous of pursuing careers in many professions or of continuing their education in graduate, business, law and medical schools.

Requirements:
Thirty three credit hours of course work are required in one language at the 300- and 400-levels. For all majors these required courses include 301 and 302; for Spanish, these include SPAN 305.

Note that students who are qualified may by-pass Elementary (101-102) and Intermediate (201-202) courses in their chosen language. By-passed courses will be included on The Citadel transcript as if they had been completed at The Citadel on a Pass/Fail basis.
