Students also deepen their understanding of their own culture and develop a greater appreciation of cultural differences, particularly in and among the Spanish-speaking world.

Careers

Intercultural competence opens the door to many exciting careers.

At the same time, in today’s globalized world a language and/or area studies major enhances a candidate’s attractiveness to employers in most career fields. Proficiency in another language, but also the cultural awareness and general communication skills that are attained as part of the major are highly valued by employers.
