What? For sciences? Uh, no. Arts, humanities and teaching programs required a language cognate. Not sciences. I did take both French and Spanish in college and in high school, as well as some linguistics courses, but no, that was not a requirement.
At least not one I got to. (I drop out after all, so I guess it’s a possibility, but I really do not think so.)
It wasn’t even a requirement for a science degree at the undergraduate level. My cognates were several semesters of statistics and research methods, math, bio and physical science, etc.
I feel stupid all of a sudden, but seriously... my mother has master’s degrees in English and Communications and can’t speak a fucking bit of Spanish. *shrug*
