Career Outlook

Evansville Regional Data

According to data collected by the Indiana Immigration Project, Indiana鈥檚 population is experiencing a steady growth of non-English speakers. The influx of multilingual immigrants is leading to an increased need for second language teachers, including TESOL teachers and administrators with greater expertise in implementing multilingual policies in schools and state agencies. The expansion of multi-national corporations (931 international companies in Indiana alone) and medical facilities in the region demonstrates further need for lingual and culturally-aware professionals who can advance Indiana鈥檚 role as a global player.

缅北强奸鈥檚 program includes exciting practicum opportunities in university language programs, multicultural centers, non-profits, immigration centers and schools. In addition, graduate students can study abroad and pursue internships and research opportunities as part of their degree program.

Cesar Berrios Chavarria

"One of the ways that I am using the knowledge and skills that I gained from the MASPC program is by trying to find new ways to better serve our Latino students. While conducting my research for my oral presentation, I was inspired to use some of that research in my current position to start making changes. The MASPC degree has not only made me a more culturally diverse and well-rounded professional, but it has also opened many opportunities for me." - Cesar Berrios Chavarria, 缅北强奸 MASPC Graduate, 2018

Helen Bryant, '23

Helen Bryant graduated in 2023 with an M.A. in Second Language Acquisition, Policy, and Culture. Although she was an online student from a different state, she felt welcomed and supported throughout her academics at 缅北强奸 by both her wonderful classmates and her supportive teachers with the MASPC program. Soon after graduating, she was able to get a dream job as a Japanese language instructor for a local community college in Washington State. She is also working as a virtual Japanese Mentor, where she will be helping Japanese researchers with their English language skills. The MASPC program helped her to achieve her goals of becoming both an English and Japanese teacher. Through the program's flexibility in taking classes that were both interesting and challenging, as well as being able to complete a rewarding practicum experience and completing a master's thesis involving individual research, Helen felt better prepared to put her skills to use and felt more confident to apply to jobs knowing that her educational background was solid. She is excited to continue chasing her dreams and sharing her passion for languages and cultures with her students.
