Overview

An ideal of a liberal arts education, the study of a culture through its language offers insights into unfamiliar worlds and increases sensitivity to and appreciation of other cultures.

On the Spanish and French Studies program from the Occidental College you’ll gain an analytical grasp of the diverse traditions and complexities of the Spanish- and French-speaking worlds, and a combination of coursework and co-curricular activities yield a multicultural, international perspective.

The linguistics minor and the Arabic language and culture classes round out the intellectual and cultural scope of our department’s academic programs.
