Summer is a great time to catch up or get ahead in coursework. It’s also a perfect time to explore and take fun and engaging classes that cater to your interests. Proficiency in a foreign language is not only a graduation requirement for most Liberal Arts majors but it is also a life skill that will help you years after your graduation.
Do you want to learn a new and interesting language this summer? Enroll for Turkish! The Language Institute will be offering an intensive eight-week sequence in Modern Turkish in summer 2014. TURK 001, 002, and 003 will be offered. Turkish may not leap to the front of your mind as a language with a great strategic and historical significance, but, in fact, a knowledge of Turkish gives you access to a number of important and dynamic cultures, political systems, and economies, each of which is becoming increasingly important in the twenty-first century.
The Language Institute is offering Summer Scholarships for students enrolled in Turkish. Award amounts range from $500-$2300 per course. For more information and to apply and enroll, please visit the Language Institute’s website.
