You Don't Have to Choose Just One: Combining Languages With Other Fields
3-3:45 p.m.
LOCATION: Schimmel/Conrades Science Center 161
Choosing a major doesn't mean closing doors—and adding a language might actually open more of them. This session explores why languages pair so well with other fields, how double majors can be planned strategically, and what students wish they'd known earlier. You'll hear directly from students who combined majors, studied abroad, and made it work in ways that were easier than expected.
