Learning Spanish and about Hispanic culture and literature will open doors that you never knew existed.

It will change the way you think about the world around you. As one of the most-spoken languages in the world, Spanish can also serve you in the workplace, while on vacation, or in your career as a student.


Programs

We offer three degree options.

Minor

If you鈥檝e already selected a major, consider a minor in Spanish. Many students specializing in international relations, history, commerce, sociology, and even biology pursue a minor in Spanish because knowledge of the language helps them pursue career paths in international contexts or in the developing world.

Major

A major in Spanish truly embraces the language, cultural, and literary contexts of the Hispanic world, drawing from the rich cultures of Latin America as well as Spain. Our courses entice students to travel or study abroad and offer authentic encounters with the Hispanic world through art, film and most importantly, literature.

Honours

An honours in Spanish via the interdisciplinary modern languages, literatures, and cultures degree, with an emphasis on Spanish. Combined with the study of two other languages, this degree option allows you to gain intimate knowledge of three languages while focusing on the culture and literature of the Spanish-speaking world.

  • Spanish Film Festival (winter semester)
  • 鈥淯na puerta al mundo鈥 en espa帽ol鈥 CHMA Radio series (interviews conducted by students)

Sarah McCracken was a student in SPAN 2111, and she says that "The Spanish Radio Show is a fantastic program which allowed intermediate-level speakers to practice conversational Spanish.  It is the most fun and rewarding part of this course.  Students can choose a topic of interest, do external research, relay information, and share stories to a local audience while improving their language skills.  Se帽ora Fari帽a is extremely helpful and smoothly guides students through the process to ensure a positive experience."

Each year we recruit students to work as monitors to help animate the course content and provide an opportunity for oral and aural practice.
