Bachelor's Degree
The combined Spanish and linguistics major allows students to examine the Spanish language specifically while also exploring broader language systems. Learners develop advanced skills in speaking and understanding Spanish while using this foundation to investigate Hispanic cultural traditions, literary works, and historical developments. Simultaneously, students analyze the architecture of human languages at various levels (phonetics, morphology, syntax, semantics) and examine language's role within social groups. Graduates gain both cultural awareness and language expertise, enabling them to effectively use and study one of the globe's most spoken languages while comprehending its evolution across different regions and eras.
