Greetings and Welcome to the Modern Languages department!
As chair, I am very pleased to introduce you to our dynamic Modern Languages program, and to our faculty, a group of committed and passionate scholars, who maintain high standards in their research and teaching.
We believe that the study of a modern language constitutes a range of learning experiences that enable us to enjoy the varied cultural richness of God's world.
It is in this Christian context and worldview that the professors at Biola will meet you in order to make sure that this experience will be meaningful, encouraging you to reach your intellectual potential and equipping you to make a difference in the world for Jesus Christ.
The goal of our program is to give you the opportunity to widen your perspectives and to grow in your appreciation for other cultures in their multiple expressions, thus offering lasting enrichment to your life.
Our interdisciplinary approach and our service-oriented curriculum offer you the opportunity to experience first hand the language of study as well as the culture that harbors it.
If you are a heritage or native speaker of a language, you should consider studying that language in order to develop your already acquired linguistic skills as well as to deepen your cultural knowledge and understanding, as it constitutes the personal heritage given to you by God.
I invite you to explore all of the features of our web site, especially the French and Spanish resource networks.
We look forward to meeting you at the Modern Languages Department to share this adventure with you.
In Him,

Dr. Graciela Pérez Boruszko
Modern Languages Chair
