Introduction: 本系之創系宗旨與目標，主要在於培育有語言溝通與自主思考能力的文化服務人才，而系上教師專長皆符合語言、多元文化研究與教育相關領域，對於專業課程的傳授具有深厚的專業知識及教學技能。為配合本系規劃課程架構之理念以及配合學生的學習與就業需求，開設相關課程。原屬「全球化研究與發展學院」99學年度改隸屬「全球創業發展學院」，另於101學年度變更本系名稱，由「多元文化與語言學系」改為「英美語言文化學系」。

The program design aims to combine the idea of promoting cultural diversity around the world an introducing an applied language dimension. It recognizes that everyone profits from the free flow of ideas, words and images. It encourages preservation of indigenous traditions and minority languages. It treats the cultures of rich and poor countries as equals. And, most topically, it offers a healthy antidote to cultural homogeneity. In addition to core course modules in areas such as Cultural Studies, Communication, Linguistic, and Ethnicity, Race and Identity, the program focuses on language and cross-cultural practices and modes of communication as well as on multimodal texts and narrative.
