Hispanic Studies introduces both the Spanish language and the culture of the Hispanic world.
Spanish is one of the most widely spoken languages in the Western world.
The study of Spanish is very important in preparing for a career in the diplomatic corps, various international agencies, teaching, translation, journalism, publishing, commerce, web design, and commercial and cultural relations between Canada and Spanish-speaking countries.
At Mount Allison University, courses in Spanish offer the opportunity to learn the language while becoming familiar with the culture of the Hispanic world through the study of its literary and artistic works.
Particular attention is directed towards achieving oral-aural proficiency, both in class and in the language laboratory.
Intermediate and advanced courses help perfect your ability in the language, while literature courses in the upper years give you a chance to explore Spanish theatre, novels, poetry, and other literature.
No previous knowledge of the language is required. All courses in the Hispanic Studies curriculum are taught in Spanish unless indicated.
Hispanic Studies is available as:
Experiential learning opportunities are offered in every degree.
