Introduction

Today, all types of formal and informal interaction between peoples of varied backgrounds and languages is increasingly possible and im-portant. During this era of rapid globalization, everyone can benefit from the vital skills of languages, cultural knowledge, and global competency.

We are counseled to learn “of things which are at home [and] things which are abroad: the wars and the perplexities of the nations, and the judgments which are on the land, and a knowledge also of countries and of kingdoms” (Doctrine and Covenants 88:79). We are further counseled to “study and learn, and become acquainted with all good books, and with languages, tongues, and people” (Doctrine and Covenants 90:15).

International Studies

of different disciplines or professions. The major is unique in its modular structure, including a core in Economics, History, Geogra-phy, and Political Science, area studies in culture, and the fl exibility to choose a minor or clusters. Students must demonstrate language profi ciency at the third-year level. Students may also do a concentra-tion, minor, or cluster in International Studies.

Languages (major, concentration, minors, and clusters)

The Department of Languages and International Studies at BYU-Idaho helps students to build speaking, listening, reading, and writing skills, as well as cultural awareness in fi ve languages from the beginning to advanced level (Chinese, French, German, Russian, and Spanish). We also certify applied second language profi ciency, facili-tate comparative second language learning for students of “other” languages, and offer coursework for teachers and students of English as a second language. Programs exist to meet student needs in the following areas:

Minors

Applied Second Language Profi ciency

Students with advanced foreign language skills campus-wide may complement their declared majors by following the prescribed se-quence that demonstrates profi ciency in a second language. • One approved upper-division class in Chinese, French, German,

Russian, or Spanish

• One 2-credit independent study class in the foreign language with coursework applied to the student’s chosen discipline

Online Certifi cates

• Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) Prepares those with solid English language skills to teach English as a second or foreign language in the U.S. and abroad.

•English as an International Language (EIL)

Provides English language instruction to assist international students to increase language skills for employment and/or continued educa-tion. Students will increase their English language profi ciency by focusing on oral communication, listening skills, reading skills, and writing skills.

Competency Credit

Returned missionaries and others with extensive non-academic for-eign language experience may receive up to 12 hours of credit by suc-cessfully passing the tests offered at https://fl ats.byu.edu/ in any of the languages listed. Alternatively, students who begin their language study at a higher level and receive a C grade or better may petition up to 12 hours of vertical credit for the courses they skip. For help with this option, please contact [email protected]. Native speakers are not eligible for test or vertical credit.

Placement

Students with high school language experience should begin their language study at the highest level possible. An online placement test is available at the department homepage (see below). Returned missionaries start at the 202 level (302 in Spanish). Native speak-ers begin as follows: 301 in Chinese; 321 in French, German, and Spanish; 202 in Russian. However, native speakers who are language education majors or minors should begin with 202 (302 in Spanish).

Notes

Language Education majors and minors must pass a profi ciency-based certifying test (Praxis). If students have not had a language immersion experience we strongly encourage them to take part in a study abroad language program.
