Europe

Covering a geographical area (sometimes referred to as Middle Europe) that stretches from the Baltic to the Aegean and from Germany to Russia, and that recent history has highlighted more than ever, the department brings together eighteen highly diverse languages.

Languages taught

More than half of the eighteen languages offered by the department are Slavic languages: Polish, Czech, Slovakian, Sorbian, Slovenian, Bosnian-Croatian-Serbian, Bulgarian, Macedonian, Belarussian, Ukrainian.
Three belong to the Finno-Ugric family: Hungarian, Finnish and Estonian.
Two are Baltic languages: Letton and Lithuanian.
The others are Romanian, the only Romance language taught at Inalco, Modern Greek and Albanian.
Most of them are now official languages of the European Union, or are set to become so in the near future. As well as being of linguistic and cultural interest, the study of these languages can open up interesting career opportunities, particularly in the fields of translation and interpreting, or as an original complement to other skills.

NB: the teaching of Belarussian is managed by the Études russes department, that of rromani is managed by the Asie du sud Himalaya department.
