Spanish Major


Return to {$returnto_text} Return to: >Academic Programs

Major Programs

Students are encouraged to take MODL 1010: The Language Phenomenon, or 1020: Language and Society, and, in certain cases, 1030: Language as Literature, early in their careers. If possible, students should declare their major as sophomores. Such a time frame allows for adequate discussion with advisors, and appropriate course and study abroad planning.

Students without a specific career objective are encouraged to complement their language major with a second major and to discuss possible objectives with a member of the department. In the past, students have chosen to double major in such fields as anthropology, biology, communication studies, global studies, management and economics, mathematics, political science, and psychology. The LEAD program offers opportunities for internships and for exploring both work and community service. Those seeking teaching licensure are encouraged to discuss their career plans with a member of the department as soon as possible.

Major Requirements


(Note: Courses in language study through the minimum level required for the major, SPAN 3220, are counted toward breadth of study.)

A Spanish major consists of 10 courses as follows:

  • Nine courses in Spanish beyond 3220, including 5900, 5910 (which must be taken at Hamline), and at least one literature course.

      One of the following:

Note


Some upper-division courses taught in English but focusing on the Spanish-speaking world may count. Please consult with Professor Younoszai, Professor Leal, or Professor Bell for course approval. Courses taken abroad may be substituted for some of the required Spanish courses. Undergraduate research is highly recommended.
