Language study at Columbia & Beyond

Columbia University offers 50+ languages in the most linguistically diverse city in the world. Through language study, students can connect with cultures and communities, express their creativity, build upon the languages they grew up with, and become lifelong learners. Check out the student experiences page to learn more about the paths that Columbia students have followed, from the language sequence to upper-level courses in departments, to local communities and beyond.

A Tradition of Faculty Excellence

Columbia language faculty are part of a community of practice committed to teaching excellence and innovation. The LRC helps to advance this commitment through regular talks and workshops, invited guest speakers, conferences and symposia, and one-on-one collaborations. Check out our Faculty Collaborations page to see some of the innovative projects that Columbia language faculty have developed at the LRC to support language learners.
