About the Department:

The Department of Foreign Languages and Literatures at NC State provides students with a broad and intimate understanding of the rich and varied cultures of our globe-understanding that is built on solid competence of spoken and written skills in the language(s) you choose.

At the graduate level, the Department offers students the opportunity to major in the following programs of study leading to the B.A. degree: French, German Studies, and Spanish.

We also offer minors in the following: Arabic (through Middle Eastern Studies), Chinese, Classics (Greek and Latin), French, German Studies, Hindu/Urdu, Italian, Japanese, Russian, and Spanish.
