About the program
Political and economic realities today ensure that no education can be considered adequate without the ability to understand the perspective of cultures other than our own. The French perspective of the French program at Marist College affords students three distinct features: a tradition of inquiry into the meaning, structure, and practice of language; a history of thought, literature, and fine arts that has shaped the Western tradition; and a rich diversity of African, North American and Asian cultures which still choose French as a primary or secondary mode of expression.
The Department of Modern Languages and Cultures affords students the opportunity to develop linguistic and cultural proficiency to support their larger goals. Both on campus and at numerous partner programs abroad, we offer small classes, interdisciplinary courses and experiential venues with dedicated faculty who work closely with students to develop a personalized learning path. In addition, our Weiss Language Center offers innovative technological, learning, and social support to help you meet your linguistic objectives.
We are a dynamic and diverse campus community committed to active global citizenship, working in close partnership with and in support of global learning hubs and Marist and beyond. With a modern language education you’ll soon be creating your own path in the world!
