Finnish Minor
Program description
Finland is the land of the Kalevala, the Finnish national epic that has influenced literature ranging from Longfellow's The Song of Hiawatha to Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings. Finland is also home to many world-famous heavy metal bands, the technological giant Nokia, and is a world leader in the fields of education, design, forestry, bio-energy, and the arts.
The Finnish minor provides a solid foundation in the Finnish language and introduces students to the cultures of the Nordic countries, including the indigenous peoples of the High North. Minors typically pursue careers in international business, telecommunications, technology, and forest management.
