Spanish and Hispanic Studies, B.A.

Requirements for the Major in Spanish and Hispanic Studies:

A minimum of 10 courses, including two classes in the 250-299 sequence; two classes in the 300 sequence; three classes in the 400-level sequence (one of which is either a WS or 489 (Honors); and one elective course at the discretion of the student. This elective class may consist of any additional Spanish course, a LACS-designated course, a Spanish program MLT-designated course (taught in English), or a mini-term to a Spanish speaking country. We highly encourage students to go on a mini or full term to a Spanish speaking country (all coursework on terms abroad counts toward the major). Students may consult their Spanish faculty advisors for additional options.

These requirements apply starting in Fall 2023. Previous requirements for the major, ID major, and minor in SPN will be applicable until Spring 2026. Students can opt out and fulfill the new requirements if desired. Similarly, SPN 202 and SPN 203 will be counted as SPN 250-299 courses until Spring 2026.
