Why Study Spanish?

Spanish studies encompasses all aspects of Hispanic life and culture: literature, language, culture, history, film, art. Students should consider a Spanish major if they are interested in other cultures, would like to have a career with an international component, enjoy learning and speaking foreign languages, and like to travel.

What can I do with Spanish major?

A major in Spanish, perhaps with a concentration in Language and World Business, can be an advantage in gaining employment in many fields: teaching, translation, interpreting, journalism, international business or law, foreign service, travel industry jobs, etc. The ability to speak, read and write with precision in a second language is an increasingly desirable skill in the United States. In addition, a job applicant with study abroad experience on her or his resume attracts an employer’s attention, for studying abroad demonstrates adaptability and resourcefulness.
