Department of Global Languages & Cultures
Spanish Studies Programs
The department offers two Spanish programs for majors—one for native speakers and another for nonnative speakers. Because native speakers vary in language proficiency, faculty determine whether to classify a student as a native speaker.
Spanish Summer
