This department supervises the following degree programs: Bachelor of Arts in FRENCH, GERMAN, LATIN, and SPANISH, Master of Arts in APPLIED LINGUISTICS, CLASSICAL HUMANITIES, GERMAN, and ROMANCE LANGUAGES, and Doctor of Philosophy in SPANISH. The department participates in the RUSSIAN LANGUAGE AND AREA STUDIES program at the undergraduate level and the LATIN AMERICAN AREA STUDIES program at the undergraduate level as well as in the minor at the master's and doctoral level. The department also participates in the ethnic studies, honors, linguistics, comparative literature, and teacher education programs. See the section on Special and Interdepartmental Programs of the College of Arts and Sciences.

An undergraduate major in French, German, or Spanish consists of 30 hours at the 2000-level and above including a minimum of five 4000-level courses. German majors may substitute GERM 3305 and 3306 for two of the five 4000-level courses. The Latin major consists of 18 hours of Classics or Classical Studies courses, LAT 2301, 2302, and six hours of 4000 Latin. Students pursuing teacher certification must replace Classics with advanced Latin to complete 24 hours in Latin per se.

B.A. and M.B.A. This is a program, of great practical value, made possible by cooperation between this department and the College of Business Administration. Undergraduate students may major in one of four languagesFrench, German, Russian Language and Area Studies, or Spanishwhile minoring in Business. One more year earns an MBA and a chance to participate in the international business community.

A minor may be obtained in classical studies and in French, German, Greek, Italian, Latin, Russian, or Spanish. Normally a minimum of 18 hours in one language (not including 1501) is required (15 hours beginning at the 2000 level in German), including at least 3 hours at the 4000-level. College Level Examination Program (CLEP) credits are accepted by the department.

Resident Courses. Students who are minors are required to take at least one upper level class (3 SCH) in residence in the target language at Texas Tech University. Students who are majors are required to take at least three upper level classes (9 SCH) in residence in the target language at Texas Tech University. Students who study abroad with the University programs (which involve faculty from our department) may include those courses among the required courses. Foreign study courses taken through approved exchange programs or other programs which may be affiliated with Texas Tech, such as the University of the Americas in Puebla (and others of a similar nature), are not considered as resident courses.

Students wishing to obtain information on a major or minor in one of these languages should consult the department chairperson for a list of advisors. These advisors can provide information on all aspects of the major and minor programs, including career opportunities. A grade of at least C in all major and minor courses is required.

To fulfill the general Bachelor of Arts requirements, students must complete 6 semester hours in the same language at the sophomore level or above. A student who enrolls in the first-year sequence will have a 11-16 hour requirement.

The regular first and second year foreign language courses (1301, 1501, or 1507 through 2302) are sequential. Students with two years of high school French, German, or Spanish are required to enroll in FREN 1507, GERM 1507, or SPAN 1507. Those students enrolled in 1507 but judged not qualified for 1507 are required to take 1501 pass-fail. Students with two years of high school Latin are required to take the Placement Exam. Successful completion of lower-numbered courses or equivalent competency is a prerequisite for the higher-numbered courses. A student who has received credit for an upper division course (3000-4000) may not subsequently receive credit for lower division courses (1000-2000) in the same language. These higher-numbered courses allow students to pursue their particular interests in language, civilization, and literature. Students enrolled in Spanish have the opportunity to study in Mexico with the annual summer Mexico Field Course program, or in Spain. Students enrolled in German may earn 6 hours credit (GERM 3305 and 3306) in Germany or Austria with the annual summer German Study Abroad Program. Students in this program may not receive credit towards a major or minor in German for any course below GERM 2302, unless completed prior to departure and must complete a 33-hour major if they participate in the program twice. Students enrolled in Russian have the option to earn credit by participating in study tours of Russia. These are regularly offered.

Instruction is offered in Russian language and literature with independent study available in Slavic and some East European subjects. For information on a BA degree or a minor in Russian Language and Area Studies, see the description of the program under "Arts and Sciences Special Programs." Students who studied Russian before coming to Texas Tech should consult the advisor in Russian to determine the level at which to register for further study.

International Students. No students from a French, German, Russian, or Spanish-speaking country who
have graduated from a secondary school in their native land may receive credit for a language course in their native language numbered below 4000.

The following courses may not be used to fulfill the foreign language requirement for any bachelor's degree: RUSN 2303, 3301, 3302, 4301, and 4311.

Teacher Education. For purposes of certification, teaching fields are offered in French, German, Latin, and Spanish. The standard program requires 24-27 hours at the 2000-level and above, which must include 9 hours of 4000-level courses in the specific language (12 hours in German). Students seeking secondary certification in French and Spanish must complete LING 4311, preferably before their student teaching, as part of the teaching field. Students seeking bilingual education endorsement, ESL endorsement, or secondary or elementary certification in French, German, Latin, or Spanish should consult with advisors in the College of Education and in the Department of Classical and Modern Languages and Literatures.

Placement and Credit by Examination. The department offers placement tests in French, German, Latin, and Spanish. These tests permit students to earn up to 16 hours credit for a variety of first and second year courses. The placement tests also provide a recommended placement or next logical course the student should take.

Each placement test is intended to evaluate an individual's general level of knowledge of the language; a grade is not issued, nor is any specific text or study material recommended for the tests. Any credit earned through these tests is posted to the student's transcript as credit by examination after 12 hours have been completed at Texas Tech. The hours will count towards languages or other humanities requirement, depending on the student's college, but will not affect the grade-point average.

Students who earn credit through a language placement test may not later take that course and receive credit. Likewise, an individual cannot receive credit through the placement tests for a course that has already been completed. Each of the language placement tests [i.e., French, German, Latin, Spanish] may be taken only once per student.

The placement tests are administered by the Language Laboratory in Room 19 Foreign Languages Building. The tests are offered the last Wednesday and Thursday of each month (except December), during preregistration periods, and at the beginning of each long semester. Further information may be obtained by calling the Language Laboratory at 742-3151.
