Spanish Major
The Spanish major is designed to promote the development of advanced proficiency in Spanish and a deepening understanding of Hispanic cultures. As the knowledge of at least one foreign language has become indispensable in today’s economic and political interdependence of nations, the Spanish major will advance the development of intercultural competence. The Spanish major requires:
- 10 courses (30 credits), out of which two may be at the 200 level and at least eight must be at the 300 and 400 levels. At least two of the advanced level courses must be at the 400 level.
- At least five courses (15 credits) must be taken at Bryant.
Spanish Concentration
The Spanish concentration is designed to promote proficiency in Spanish and a strong understanding of Hispanic cultures. As the knowledge of at least one foreign language has become indispensable in today’s economic and political interdependence of nations, the Spanish concentration will promote the development of intercultural competence. The Spanish concentration requires six courses, out of which one may be at the 200 level and at least five must be at the 300 and 400 levels. Three courses must be earned at Bryant. This is an 18 credit concentration only. Students must have a primary concentration in the College of Business or a major in the College of Arts and Sciences.
Spanish Minor
The Spanish Minor is designed to provide students with an advanced level of language proficiency and a strong understanding of the cultures of Spanish speaking societies. Besides equipping students with the necessary tools to become excellent communicators and rigorous thinkers, the minor also equips students to live and work within an increasingly international context. Given the numerous hemispheric trade agreements, the significant presence of Latina/os in the U.S., the considerable number of Spanish speaking transnational immigrants and the importance of Spain in the European Union, minoring in Spanish also grants the student an advantageous position in the job market.
