Overview

The Department of Modern and Classical Languages and Literatures offers majors in and minors in Classical Languages, Classical Civilization and Spanish, and minors in French and Italian.

Students in our program love the small classes, dynamic teaching and interactive learning.

For those who are seeking a true linguistic challenge, the department offers “Romance-Language Synthesis” in which students go from learning the alphabet to reading and discussing novels in three languages simultaneously: Spanish, French and Italian.

Our popular World Language Program works with the Asian and Latino studies programs, as well as with a study-abroad program, to offer you the opportunity to travel abroad. Students have recently traveled to Ukraine, France, Spain, China, Argentina, South Korea, Hong Kong, Germany, Poland, Italy, Mexico, and Japan.

Whatever your chosen destination you acquire the native language, become familiar with its history, culture, and traditions, and then experience the joy of living and working (and speaking) in that culture.

Mission

The mission of the Spanish program at Saint Peter's University is to prepare our students to live in a multilingual world, and in an increasingly multilingual society here in the United States. The Department provides an excellent preparation in numerous languages and literatures at the undergraduate level which will allow the student to communicate effectively in target languages other than English, both in professional and colloquial environments. The Department provides superior preparation for graduate studies in the target languages and in Comparative Literature. Finally, the Department strives to offer the best possible training in the skills necessary to compete successfully in the increasingly competitive global economy.
