Students are strongly urged, in consultation with their faculty advisor, to plan their major early in their career at Muhlenberg so that space can be provided for important Study Aboard experience and/or out-of-classroom learning such as the Washington Semester and internships.

International studies majors are strongly encouraged to demonstrate competence in a language other than English with an additional major or minor in a language. If their schedules do not permit a minor, students are strongly encouraged to take courses in a language through Advanced Conversation & Composition.?
