Whether your goal is to obtain specialized knowledge or
training in a particular field or simply to pursue even greater fluency and
insight into your language area, graduate school may be a next step toward a
successful future. A graduate degree in Chinese, French, German, and/or
Spanish can expand career opportunities, and many Modern Language
students have gone on to graduate school after completing their degree at Grove
City College. In fact, an undergraduate degree in a modern language opens
up a broad range of graduate education options including international
business, economics, missions, psychology, social work, international studies,
foreign or domestic relations, translation/interpretation, law, teaching
English as a second language, linguistics and literature, among others.
In recent years, our graduates have earned (or are earning) M.A. and/or Ph.D.
degrees from schools like The Pennsylvania State University, Middlebury
College, Duquesne University, the University of Virginia, the Monterrey Institute,
Millersville University, Purdue University, the University of Nevada Las Vegas,
Kent State University, Ohio University, the University of Pittsburgh, Indiana
State University, California State University, and many others.
