Modern languages and literatures certificate program requirements
1.
Objective. The objective of the Certificate program in MLL is to recognize a student's competence in the target language, as well as to encourage the study of a foreign language. The study of another language prepares students to effectively communicate with people of other cultures, and also fosters respect for their traditions and values. Furthermore, the study of another language and culture allows us a vital perspective from which to view and critique our own culture.
2.
Requirements. The Program is open to all St. Norbert students who entered St. Norbert College beginning in the fall of 2006. The Certificate recognizes "intermediate level proficiency" in a particular language, a competency equivalent to the successful completion of the 101-204 sequence with an overall grade point average of 3.0 (B) in the language courses counting toward the certificate. The course that demonstrates successful completion of the certificate must be taken at St. Norbert through the foreign curriculum and the student must earn a 3.0 (B) or higher in this course. A student who places beyond the 204 level (e.g. 304 or 305) still must complete one class on campus and receive a grade of 3.0 (B) or higher in that class.
3.
Program Administration. Students must proactively complete and submit a Certificate Petition and documentation to the Office of the Registrar. MLL Faculty and the MLL Discipline Coordinator will have petition forms and will aid both students and their advisors in accomplishing this task.
