The Critical Languages program is a self-instructional/tutorial approach to less commonly taught foreign languages. Students meet with a tutor three hours per week in addition to practicing with audiocassettes. Most tutors are native speakers of the language. Professional teachers of the specific language may be brought in from other universities to evaluate student performance. The final grade is based on final examination as well as on performance during the tutorial sessions. Interested students must contact the coordinator before registration. Each course carries 3 semester hours of credit.

The following languages may be available for study: Arabic, Chinese, Dutch, Finnish, Hindi, Hungarian, Japanese, Korean, Modern Greek, Portuguese, Russian, Swedish, Hebrew, and Swahili.
