“I believe learning a new language is helpful in any field. Learning a language opens up your range of communication and exposes you to new people and ideas.”
"The benefit of language is so clear--how it opens up new doors. You can imagine yourself in places you couldn't have imagined before."
Charles Huang, SB '11
“The way people approach learning a language is so applicable to learning anything. You have to be ready to fail and try again.”
Zaina Moussa, SB '21, Biological Engineering Major, Japanese Minor.
“Taking both majors, one in Chem E and one in Spanish, just allowed me to pursue two things I love. My thesis is in Spanish and incorporates aspects of chemical and environmental engineering!”
Jordan Alford, SB '20, Chemical Engineering, Spanish dual majors.
“My French studies allowed me to spend two summers abroad through MISTI, in Belgium at a cleantech startup.”
Liam Daniel Fenlon, SB '20, Business Analytics major, French minor.
