The Certificate in Modern Languages at Bishop’s University is designed to provide part-time students with a working knowledge of at least two of the modern languages offered at the University: French, German, Japanese, and/or Spanish.

Students select two main languages of concentration and must complete at least 12 credits in each. The remaining 6 credits may be taken in either of the two primary languages or in an additional language. Course offerings are available through the Department of Modern Languages, Literatures, and Cultures, the Department of English, and the Département des études françaises et québécoises.

Credits earned through the certificate program may be applied toward a degree in Modern Languages; however, students may not be simultaneously enrolled in both a degree program and the Certificate in Modern Languages.
