Department of Modern Languages & Cultures
In teaching language, we work in highly interactive and learning-centered contexts to develop your ability to ask and answer the critical questions that make language, history, culture, and society meaningful. We further immerse you in the learning of a modern language and culture through study abroad, co-curricular international travel, service learning, internship, and undergraduate research.
Scholarships
The University and the Department of Modern Languages and Cultures award a number of scholarships for students studying French and/or Spanish. Study abroad scholarships are also available. These awards recognize and celebrate academic excellence in the modern languages at Otterbein, as well as encourage students to sharpen fluency in the target language, develop deeper relationships with the people, and foster mutual understanding.
