UW-Eau Claire foreign languages advantages

Foreign Languages

For little more than it costs to attend UW-Eau Claire, students can study abroad in one of more than 45 programs in nearly 30 countries, including summer, semester and year-long programs. Most language majors spend one semester abroad.
On-campus language clubs and honor societies sponsor numerous activities throughout the school year to promote understanding of other languages and cultures. Examples of such activities include International Folk Fair; Spanish theater; a German dinner and dance; and annual celebrations for French, German and Spanish weeks.
The Roma Hoff Instructional Resource Center, equipped with audio/video facilities, foreign language programs received via satellite, foreign films and computer-assisted foreign language instruction, allows students to practice and improve their listening and speaking skills.
UW-Eau Claire offers a strong teacher preparation program. Through our faculty/student collaborative research program, students can participate in fascinating research projects while working one-on-one with a professor in their field and gaining in-depth knowledge for their careers or graduate school.
