All of the departments of English, Spanish, French, Germany, Japanese, and Russian offer a one-year exchange program for junior students to study abroad at TKU’s sister universities. The College of Foreign languages and literatures also works with the College of International Studies to provide courses in both international and regional studies and encourages students to familiarize themselves with global politics, economies, and cultures. Each of the College’s departments also provides practical courses and training through partnership with private enterprises to stay close to industry needs. The College’s six departments also work closely together in issuing the Tamkang Journal of Foreign Languages and Literatures, a multi-lingual biannual aimed at promoting scholarship in foreign language teaching and literary and cultural studies.
