Immerse yourself
Want to explore modern languages and a variety of cultures? Welcome to the world languages and cultures department at Bridgewater College.
At Bridgewater, you’ll learn from faculty fluent in their chosen languages who will work closely with you to help you to develop your own language skills and cultural competency. Bridgewater also offers an introductory, one-year sequence of college-level Arabic language and culture.
Our advanced classes are small, full-immersion settings where you’ll participate in the learning process and your skills will develop in all areas of language: speaking, listening comprehension, reading and writing. Our faculty will also share with you their personal experiences and travels overseas and strongly encourage you to go abroad for your own cultural and language immersion experiences.
Study Abroad
