Institutional Learning Outcomes: Intercultural Awareness Students travel to another country for the purpose of studying language and culture. Field schools may be offered in Chinese, German, French, Japanese, Spanish, or other languages which might be taught in the future in the Modern Languages program. Students gain an awareness of the value of diverse cultures and worldviews, and reflect on and set goals for learning beyond their university experience. In the case of French only, travel may be within Canada (i.e. to Quebec). Field schools vary in length up to 6 weeks, and this may include classroom time prior to travel. Students may take this course more than once provided that the language of study is different each time. Prerequisite: Students must have completed at least one year of study (or equivalent) in the field school target language. The field school instructor will authorize equivalency.
