Any course submitted for transfer must be no more than five years old at the time of the student\u2019s admission to the World Languages and Cultures MA, must have been taken at the graduate level in a recognized institution, and must have been completed with a grade of B or better. Since Graduate School regulations allow the transfer of only 12 non-degree graduate credits to a master\u2019s program, students are advised to apply for degree candidacy in the World Languages and Cultures MA before completion of 12 credits of coursework.<\/p> <h3>Major Professor as Advisor<\/h3> <p>The student must have a major professor to advise and supervise the student\u2019s studies as specified in Graduate School regulations.<\/p> <p>The Coordinating Committee refers each incoming student to a temporary advisor, normally the Graduate Advisor in the student\u2019s chosen concentration, as stated in the application. The Graduate Advisor assists in assessing the student\u2019s competencies, interests, and future academic or professional needs. Normally, the Graduate Advisor recommends a Major Professor after their initial meeting with the student.<\/p> <p>The Major Professor and the student establish a plan of study by the end of the student\u2019s first semester of graduate work. The plan will be reviewed by the Major Professor and the student after the successful completion of 12 credits and the removal of any deficiencies that may have been assessed at admission. At the time of the review, the student may request another Major Professor in the event that their programmatic needs have been modified or altered. Subsequent minor changes must be approved by the Major Professor.<\/p> <p>The Major Professor evaluates and updates the student\u2019s progress after completion of every six (6) credits or every semester of subsequent work. The student may not register for any courses without this advisor\u2019s prior approval.<\/p> <h3>Time Limit<\/h3> <p>The student must complete all degree requirements within five years of initial enrollment.<\/p> <h3>Study Abroad<\/h3> <p>A maximum of 12 credits of preapproved study abroad courses may count toward the degree.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"details-sidebar\" class=\"uwm-l-col uwm-l-col--4 uwm-l-offset--1\">\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"uwm-l-buttons--full\">\n<a class=\"uwm-c-button uwm-c-button--full uwm-u-mb-20\" href=\"https:\/\/catalog.uwm.edu\/letters-science\/world-languages-cultures\/world-languages-cultures-ma\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Academic Catalog<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"uwm-l-buttons--full\">\n<a class=\"uwm-c-button uwm-c-button--full uwm-u-mb-20\" href=\"https:\/\/catalog.uwm.edu\/course-search\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Schedule of Classes<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n    <div class=\"uwm-p-card uwm-p-card--color-head uwm-u-mt-40\">\n        <div class=\"uwm-p-card--title\">Contact<\/div>\n        <div class=\"uwm-p-card--body\">\n            <div class=\"uwm-p-card--content\">\n                <h2 class=\"is-style-size-h5 uwm-u-mb-0 uwm-u-mt-30\">Prospective Graduate Students<\/h2>\r\n<p class=\"is-style-size-p-md uwm-u-mt-10\">Questions regarding the application or the application process should be directed to the 51ÁÔÆæ Graduate School at\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:gradschool@uwm.edu\">gradschool@uwm.edu<\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0<a href=\"tel:414-229-6569\">414-229-6569<\/a>.<\/p> <h2 class=\"is-style-size-h5 uwm-u-mb-10 uwm-u-mt-30\">Current Graduate Students<\/h2>\r\n<p class=\"is-style-size-p-md uwm-u-mt-10\">Questions about research opportunities, department funding opportunities, or issues specific to the discipline should be directed to\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:kscholz@uwm.edu\">Kate Scholz<\/a>.<\/p>            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n    <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n","protected":false},"author":19040,"parent":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_uwm_academics_program_template":"page","_uwm_academics_program_navigation":[{"id":22977,"label":"Translation and Interpreting Studies, MA\/Library and Information Science, MLIS","url":"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/world-languages-cultures\/academics\/translation-interpreting-studies-ma\/translation-and-interpreting-studies-ma-library-and-information-science-mlis\/","target":"","rel":"","custom":false,"className":""},{"id":22970,"label":"Translation and Interpreting Studies, MA\/Business Administration, MBA","url":"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/world-languages-cultures\/academics\/translation-interpreting-studies-ma\/translation-and-interpreting-studies-ma-business-administration-mba\/","target":"","rel":"","custom":false,"className":""}],"uwm_academics_program_card_image_id":0,"uwm_academics_program_banner_image_id":24016,"uwm_academics_program_sort_title":"","uwm_academics_program_external_url":"","uwm_academics_program_jump_details_btn":true,"_uwm_academics_program_exclude_from_programs_archive_page":false,"_uwm_academics_program_exclude_from_programs_block":false,"_uwm_academics_program_exclude_from_department_page":false,"footnotes":"","uwm_wg_additional_authors":[]},"program_group":[149],"program_tag":[],"program_type":[19],"program_format":[27],"program_department":[],"class_list":["post-24015","program","type-program","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.3 (Yoast SEO v27.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>World Languages &amp;
