TWO majors (or a major and minor) in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences = a winning combo!

Students in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences understand the importance of learning career-relevant skills that prepare them to succeed in a wide variety of professions. In an increasingly interconnected world, language and cultural skills are important on both a local and global scale. A major or minor in LCP will pair seamlessly with your planned LAS field of study and it will set you apart from your monolingual peers.

How can I fit in LCP coursework?   

Regardless of your primary major, there is room to add a major or minor in LCP! You will work closely with WLC advisors (in addition to your primary major advisor) to make a 4-year plan that is flexible and tailored to you. We also offer summer courses and various study abroad opportunities to it in coursework outside of the fall and spring semesters. Since you are an LAS primary major, you have more opportunities to apply for LAS-specific scholarships and our advisors are familiar with LAS processes and might already be working with students in your primary major. Make MORE of the World Language requirement in LAS and ensure your language skills and cultural training are a highlight on your CV, making you are more competitive candidate for internships and jobs

What’s LCP all about?

  • Coursework tailored to professional issues
  • Internship or study abroad
  • Scholarships for your international experiences

Whether you just want to keep improving your language skills or study culture or you’re convinced you want to work internationally, LCP is right for you. Our classes will use the other part of your brain that you don’t get to exercise in your primary major.

NOTE: In some cases, an approved credit-bearing study abroad experience can take the place of the internship. Contact us to learn more.

I hope to become an immigration attorney and use my Spanish degree to better serve future Spanish-speaking clients.
