You will complete SPAN 2001 and 2002 in the fall and spring, respectively. You will learn more complex grammatical structures and engage in communication. Activities in these classes will serve as a springboard to the content courses they will take in their junior and senior years.

Upon completion of the intermediate level classes, students may also attend one of our study abroad offerings in Spain or Peru. You may also take courses on literature and culture. Once you complete the this sequence which can be done in one semester now, a wide array of options opens up for you.

All language majors are required to take an additional language so right around here you would start taking your third language at the 1001 and 1002 level.

Here comes the fun! You can enroll in courses like: Introduction to translation, Culture and Civilization of Latin America, Mexican Culture, Conversation classes, linguistics, poetry and other forms of literary expression.

You may also choose to enroll in courses in translation and advanced grammar and composition, as well as advanced conversation. Somewhere in the middle of that we will encourage you to go in one of our summer Education Abroad Programs to either Spain or Peru.

By your senior year you have honed in what you are more interested in so you will choose either more courses geared to the professions, linguistics or culture and literature.

As you work on these courses you will likely be encouraged to participate in an internship, or a research practicum if you are interested in graduate school.

During the senior year, Spanish Literature majors will take special topics courses that will help to refine their knowledge of specific literary periods and genres. Students will be expected to write research papers in Spanish.
