Languages are more than just communication-they're cultural codes that need to be analyzed and in some cases, broken. As a Cryptologic Technician Interpretive (CTI) you're more than a linguist-you're a cultural expert, able to translate and interpret foreign communications. The Defense Language School in Monterey, California will fully immerse you in the language for your choice-from Mandarin, to Spanish, to Arabic to Russian. After, you'll travel the world collecting intelligence in support of the Navy. Ignorance can be a threat, but our CTIs defend by making sure we're always in the know.
