Languages are universes and ways of thinking.
Because words, ideas, and stories shape the world, when you learn a foreign language, you see that different language perspectives make you look at the world differently. Because language is above all a means of communication, students need to see the applicability of language not only in the academic world, but also in engaging with people. Therefore language students are encouraged to travel abroad.
