The Department of Culture and Language Studies welcomes students of all disciplines to participate in the quest for cultural and
media literacy and multilingual communication.
Globalization, democratization, technology and post-colonial forces continue to powerfully shape our increasingly complex and
interconnected world, requiring each one of us to respond to new challenges and opportunities by increasing our understanding of
diverse cultures, by exploring, engaging with and developing skills in established and emerging media, through academic and
practical study of music and film, and by our competence in foreign languages.
The Department of Culture and Language Studies houses a variety of specialists in languages, literatures, arts media and cultures.
We are dedicated to the teaching of cultural literacy, which can best be achieved through the long-term development of linguistic
competence and the study of literary and social texts. In the spirit of diversity and understanding, we are committed to our
students, to the exploration of innovative teaching and research modes that draw upon common interests among our languages
and disciplines, and to the strengthening of our links to the greater academic community and the community at large.
