The Department of Languages, Literatures and Cultures at McGill University offers a flexible programme in Hispanic Studies leading to the degree of Master of Arts. 

Candidates will receive classroom preparation in the culture, intellectual history and literature of Spain and Spanish America, including two guided research projects. 

For those students holding a B.A. Honours in Hispanic Studies or an M.A. from McGill or another college or university of recognized standing, the Department offers the possibility of doctoral studies leading to the Ph.D. in Hispanic Studies.

All candidates pursuing the M.A. without a thesis, both full- and part-time, must successfully complete at least one of their Guided Research projects during the first 12 months. 

In accordance with the regulations established by Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies, students in non-thesis programs who do not take at least 12 credits per term for the duration of the program are considered to proceed toward their degree on a part-time basis.
