Overview
The Modern Languages Associate Degree develops language proficiency and cultural knowledge across several languages, taught in small classes with conversation labs, alongside culture courses taught in English covering the societies that speak each language. Languages offered include American Sign Language, Chinese, French, German, Japanese and Spanish, with an optional intercultural international study tour. The credential is a 60-credit, two-year (four-semester) Associate of Arts Degree offered through the Faculty of Language, Literature and Performing Arts at Douglas College, with admission under Open Enrolment - General Admission Requirements. At least 18 of the 60 credits must be in Modern Languages, of which nine must be second-year-level courses transferable to a BC research university (SFU, UBC, UBC Okanagan, UNBC or UVic); courses selected against the BC Transfer Guide can transfer in full toward a bachelor's degree, typically entering third year. Graduation requires a minimum program GPA of 2.00, with at least half the credits completed at Douglas College, within a seven-year completion window.
