Spanish AB



Overview

Students majoring in Spanish engage with the vast cultural and linguistic variety of this global language in small and interactive classes. The program provides cross-cultural experience for all majors, while guiding them to sharpen skills in writing, oral presentation, analytical reading and active listening. Students often participate in a study abroad program in Latin America, the Caribbean, or Spain; work with the growing Spanish-speaking communities in the Athens, Georgia area through service learning classes; live in the Spanish Language Community at Mary Lyndon Residential Hall; or devise their own original research project supervised by a faculty mentor for the CURO program.

Graduates are proficient in Spanish, which opens the door to rewarding professions and careers that require bilingual communicators who possess solid cultural knowledge. Recent graduates have become Fulbright scholars; have entered top-tier graduate programs or professional schools of medicine and law; and have taken positions at companies such as Equifax, Law & Moran, Publicis Media, KLC Studio and State Farm.
