It’s one thing to learn the theory of a language and study vocabulary from a textbook, but it’s an entirely different experience to study abroad and spend every day immersed in your target language. While we strongly encourage students to take language courses, studying abroad can also help you gain valuable language skills. We encourage you to contact International Affairs to learn more.
While UCCS offers many world languages, it is impossible to offer all of the 8000 major and minor languages of the world. If you are interested in a language that is not offered in our course catalog, we have more options for you. In collaboration with the Kraemer Family Library, the Languages Center also provides free access to the Mango Languages learning software (via pc or mobile application) offering support for 71 languages and English for non-native users.
