What will I learn?

Wichita State’s Bachelor of Arts (BA) in MCLL - Latin specialization combines a full range of language study with the option for you to also become a qualified Latin teacher in PreK-12 through the College of Applied Studies.

You’ll have access to study-abroad opportunities, informal conversation groups and the Music and Languages Innovation Center’s vast resources. And you’ll be well prepared to pursue an advanced degree and to apply your language abilities in a variety of careers, from translating to teaching.

Curriculum

The major consists of 30 credit hours beyond the LATN 112 level. It is strongly recommended that students specializing in Latin take courses in related fields such as other foreign languages, art history, English, history and philosophy.

If you choose to pursue the teacher-education option, you should contact the MCLL office.

Applied Learning

Students in the MCLL/Latin program are required to complete an applied learning or research experience to graduate from the program. The requirement can be met by successful completion of LATN 526 Advanced Grammar and Composition, involving study of Latin concepts and phrases in the legal and medical professions; or by completing MCLL 351 Linguistics and Foreign Languages, involving a sociolinguistic, i.e. applied component together with emphasis on the historical development of the modern Romance languages from Latin.

Careers

A degree in Latin from Wichita State will give you the knowledge and skills to pursue an advanced language degree and opens doors to careers at home and abroad.
