Additional Offerings
Modern Languages Program
The College of Humanities and Social Sciences also offers courses in Chinese and Spanish for interested students. These courses have three basic objectives:
- To develop competence in understanding, speaking, reading, and writing modern languages other than English,
- To cultivate an appreciation for the culture and civilization of the people whose language is being studied, and
- To provide guidance for students who are preparing for careers in various language fields.
Advanced placement with academic credit will be granted to superior students satisfactorily completing the CEEB Advanced Placement Examination in the 2000 level and above. Foreign students whose native language is not English may choose to take 12 additional hours in English in lieu of the regular foreign language requirement.
ROTC Programs
The ROTC program is designed to create effective leaders who are prepared for any career field. ROTC provides a community of students striving for excellence, demonstration of their love of country, and pursuing character-building challenges. There are multiple opportunities and benefits that each student can take advantage of through DBU's ROTC program in Texas.
