In today’s rapidly globalizing world, the demand for highly qualified professionals with a broad, international perspective is growing, particularly in the field of economics. For future economists, mastering a foreign language is not just a communication tool but a crucial asset for accessing international markets, engaging in global research, and participating in cross-cultural economic dialogue. This paper explores the essential role of foreign language learning among economics students, emphasizing its significance for their academic performance and professional development. The study also highlights the influence of modern technologies—such as online learning platforms, mobile applications, and AI tools—in making language acquisition more efficient. Additionally, it discusses the importance of interdisciplinary education and international cooperation in fostering language proficiency, ensuring that economics students are better prepared for the demands of a globalized economy.
