An Interdisciplinary Program

• At Pace, learning extends beyond the classroom. Our dedicated professors are often working professionals who bring their expertise directly to Pace students. With the melting pot of the Big Apple as your backdrop, you can achieve anything.
• Coursework includes the in-depth study of one language and its culture, foundation business courses, a specialization in one area of world trade, the opportunity to balance theoretical knowledge with technical courses, an international internship, and a senior capstone course.
• Students gain a level of experience and cultural fluency that will make them an asset in international business, finance, law, trade, government, and diplomatic relations settings.

Take Courses LikeÂ鶹´«Ã½¦

This interdisciplinary program blends theory and practice, and features three major components: a major in a foreign language and culture (French, Italian, Russian, or Spanish); a professional concentration in one of four areas of international enterprise; and a required capstone course and an internship.

Add Opportunities and Experiences

Participate in a wide variety of cultural organizations including CIAO (Italian Club), Japanese Business and Cultural Society, The Spanish Club, and honor societies including Phi Sigma Iota (Foreign Languages), Pi Delta Phi (French), and Gamma Kappa Alpha (Italian).

We strongly encourage students to take advantage of enriching travel experiences. Study abroad programs can last for a week, a semester, a summer, or even a full year. We also offer cultural and travel courses that culminate in a ten-day, in-country immersion trip during the spring and winter breaks.

The department organizes many events and cultural activities throughout the year, including International Poetry Day; International Â鶹´«Ã½ Panels; film festivals; French, Italian, and Spanish conversation hours; and excursions to plays and museums. Renowned scholars, playwrights, poets, novelists, and stage and screen directors also visit the department to give guest lectures.

Small class sizes enable faculty to provide you with individualized instruction and attention. Among our top priorities is teaching in a supportive atmosphere. Our faculty provides you with the opportunities to participate in independent research and service learning, as well as aid you in future career decisions. A number of courses are offered online.
