The Department of Languages and International
Studies offers a combination language major,
with the first language option of Spanish.
Students can also fulfill requirements for a
Spanish major on campus, or they can complete a
major in French, German or Spanish by studying
abroad. A non-teaching minor is available in
French, German and Spanish on campus and
abroad. Education courses required for a teaching
major or minor are found in the Education
Department section. Details on programs both at
home and abroad are available from the department
chair. All language majors and minors must
take at least six hours of language on the SAU
campus.
Those studying foreign language are encouraged
to study abroad. For those who cannot do
so, the requirements for a combination language
major are 12 semester credits at the 300-level in
the same first language, and six semester credits
at the 300-level in the same second language.
First language option on campus: Spanish.
Second language options: French, German and
Spanish.
Students who seek to earn foreign language
credits from an overseas program not sponsored
by St. Ambrose need to receive departmental
approval prior to going abroad.
The department encourages students who
have language experience, either through high
school credit or because they are native speakers
of languages other than English, to take CLEP
exams. The department accepts up to 14 semester
hours of credit, depending on the scores obtained
