International Studies and Languages Division

At Seaver College's International Studies and Languages Division, our goal is to foster inquiry among students and faculty through curriculum, forums, and study abroad opportunities. Our division comprises undergraduate programs in international studies, modern languages, and Asian studies.

Student Spotlight

Pepperdine student David Chang

Pepperdine Spanish major David Chang reflects on his Seaver education, "From building relationships and observing others, I have been able to form a more comprehensive idea of what faith should be about and how I can become a better global citizen in the world."
