Majors in Spanish will complete a program of study that hinges on two equally important aspects: increasing the fluency and accuracy of students’ communication in Spanish, and fostering a profound understanding and appreciation of key cultural aspects of the Hispanic World (which includes, among other things, history, literature, art, music, etc.). Majors in Spanish will achieve these learning goals through the completion of two requirements: a) taking eleven (11) courses (three of these courses may be taken abroad), and b) spending at least one (1) semester abroad in an approved program of study or an internship in a Spanish-speaking country.
