Bachelor of Arts Spanish

The ability to speak a second language opens up countless doors, from travel abroad to making a difference in your own community. The Hispanic/Latino population is one of the fastest-growing in the United States, and the ability to speak Spanish will only become more sought-after by employers.

As a Spanish major at St. Scholastica, you’ll be well prepared to work and thrive in a Spanish-speaking environment. You’ll become confident and proficient in speaking, understanding, reading and writing in Spanish.

Through this immersive learning experience, you will explore the culture, history and literature of Spanish-speaking cultures to gain a holistic understanding. You’ll also have an opportunity to complete a service-learning or internship experience.

If you’re interested in teaching, you can pursue a K-12 teaching preparation track. Or, pair your Spanish major with a major in the health sciences, social work, law or public relations. The possibilities are endless.
