Spanish major

The Spanish major at Anderson University offers students a triple focus in language, culture, and literature. After successful completion of the program, majors will be equipped to do the following:

Comprehend and interpret the written and spoken language.
Express themselves in the written and spoken word of that language.
Have a fundamental understanding of the literature and civilizations of the countries represented by the target language.
Value other cultures as fellow global citizens.
Develop skills to function successfully in cross-cultural environments.

Program Overview

4-Year Major

The major is offered as a three-year or four-year track for graduation.
A complementary major in Spanish gives students the strength and exposure of a full major, but without the requirement of additional study in a third language. It also requires completion of a study abroad experience. Many students in pre-med, nursing, business, global business, computer science, ministry, and other majors complete this complementary major, as well. This gives our students additional marketability after graduation.
The Spanish minor requires students to take 18 hours of Spanish courses beyond the Elementary Spanish level, including Spanish Composition, and Spanish Conversation.
