Department of Foreign Languages and Literatures
The 1997-98 University of Montana Catalog

Gerald A. Fetz, Chairman

Instruction is offered in the following languages and literatures: Chinese, French, German, Greek, Japanese, Latin, Russian and Spanish, as well as in linguistics, foreign literatures in English translation, and the study of foreign cultures. Undergraduate courses have been planned to meet the needs of students who began studying a language in high school as well as those who undertake such study for the first time at the University.

The courses are intended to serve several purposes: (1) Contribute to the general education of students by giving them an opportunity to gain insight into patterns of living and thinking which are different from their own: (2) Enable students to gain proficiency in the language; (3) Prepare candidates for careers in research and college teaching by providing a solid basis for graduate studies in the various languages; (4) Prepare future teachers of foreign languages; (5) Give language training requisite to careers in government, foreign commerce and library work; (6) Enable students to read foreign publications and to meet graduate foreign language requirements in their field.

A 4 position language laboratory with facilities for video/audio individual and group interaction, computerized language programs, and satellite TV is used to supplement regular class work, and is available to give the individual student opportunity to develop active use of the language. Language tapes are available for individual student checkout from Instructional Materials Service.

The Department of Foreign Languages and Literatures offers undergraduate majors in Classics (Greek and Latin), French, German, Japanese, Latin, Russian, and Spanish. Within the French or German major it is possible to elect an emphasis in linguistics. The Master of Arts degree is offered in French, German and Spanish. A master degree with a concentration in classics or linguistics may be obtained by means of the Master of Interdisciplinary Studies program.

High School Preparation: The department is considering placement alternatives. However, in the meantime a student who has several successful years of foreign language study in high school may wish to take the CLEP exam, administered by the Clinical Psychology Center in the case of French, German, or Spanish, or an equivalent exam, administered by the Department of Foreign Languages and Literatures, in the case of other languages (e.g., Chinese, Latin, Russian). The CLEP exams are arranged individually.

This exam is not required, but it serves one or more of three purposes:

    l. Exemption from the General Education Competency Requirement in Foreign Language: if the student achieves a score that indicates a competence equivalent to the completion of French, German, or Spanish 102 (second semester). (See the General Education Requirements section of this catalog.)

    2. Placement for further study in the language: the score achieved on this test is an accurate indicator of the course level at which language study should be resumed at the University (e.g. 102, 201, 202).

    3. Credit by examination: A student with extensive language study may score high enough on the exam to receive university credits. Attainment of a score equivalent to completion of 201 or 202 will be rewarded by receipt of the four credits for that course. Four credits is the maximum number of credits attainable by examination. Pass grade only.

Students who elect not to take this exam may:

    l. Satisfy the General Education Competency Requirement in Foreign Language by successfully completing a University foreign language 102 (second semester) course.

    2. Estimate their placement level for further study by the approximate equating of one year of high school study to one semester of university study. Students should consult with the department in making this estimate.

The Department of Foreign Languages and Literatures strongly recommends that foreign language majors take, as early as possible in their college career, Liberal Studies 151L-152L Introduction to the Humanities, and FLLG 160L Classical Mythology.

Foreign Study Programs. The Foreign Languages and Literatures Department offers programs of accredited study in Austria, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Mexico, Japan, and Russia. Each program is supervised by a University of Montana Foreign Languages faculty member, and is open to any student who meets the respective foreign language prerequisites. Details concerning individual programs are available from the Department of Foreign Languages and Literatures. The department also sponsors graduate student exchanges with the Universities of Heidelberg and Burgundy, as well as work/study internships abroad for students in French, German, and Japanese.

Special Degree Requirements

Refer to graduation requirements listed previously in the catalog. See index.

Total credits required for a major in a foreign language vary with the student's high school preparation or language credit transferred from another college or university. Requirements for academic majors are set forth below under the various languages. Requirements for teaching majors and minors also are listed under the School of Education.
